‘I apologise, I’ve learnt my lesson, I’m back’- Dr Kedrick D. Pickering
Dr Pickering, who was defeated by the incumbent Seventh District Representative Dr the Hon Natalio D. Wheatley at the February 2019 General Elections, made the official announcement at The Stickett last night, April 6, 2022.
Dr Pickering not running as Independent candidate!
The former D7 Representative; however, did not say whether he will run in the Seventh District or At Large. He also said he was not running as an Independent candidate but stopped short of saying which group he will be affiliated with.
“I am going to run with a group of persons that I feel are going to work for the betterment of the country and I will do the work to ensure that that happens.”
Dr Pickering also said he was willing to put differences and egos aside to work with colleagues that he worked with before or other colleagues, “to act in a manner of reconciliation.”
The NDP that Dr Pickering helped founded split before the 2019 general elections and Dr Pickering had decided to run as an Independent candidate. It saw him losing his long-held seat.
Dr Pickering said his community has told him not to run as an Independent candidate so he is looking to affiliate himself with a group.
The VI ‘needs experienced leadership’
“I am willing to do my part to build a government that will ensure that we have the best representation that this country can offer in these difficult times.
“I am not here to tell you about NDP, PVIM and this and that, I am talking about like-minded people working together, whatever that organisation turns out to be so let it be.”
Dr Pickering also said he has the ability and experience to hit the ground running as an elected representative.
“Right now the country needs experienced leadership,” he said.

Consequently, after 20 years, he has little concrete to show for his time in office. What did his constituents get for their confidence and their investing their precious and valuable votes in him? People can change yes but do they always change for the right reason? Most change for self-interest. It is old adage that a leopard cannot change its spots. Poet and civil rights activist Maya Angelou says when someone tells you who they are, believe them. Dr. Pickering assertion that people are jealous of him because he has rich, White friends was a bone-headed statement but it spoke volume. How will he assure the constituents in D-7 that he has changed and is now genuinely concern about their interest, not just their vote. The decision is up to voters and time will tell. Has his ship sailed?
Are you telling me that it will take you 20 years to know that you made a mistake. He'll no.
You spent 12yrs in Government plus 8 in opposition and coming and tell me that you made mistake. Well sah.
Well if you all gave him 20 years to realise that he made mistakes well Wheatley need four (4) mores to correct his, if he made any. Think think.
