Dr Wheatley sworn in as Premier! New cross-party gov’t also installed

It’s official! Dr Natalio Wheatley is the new Premier and Minister of Finance of the British Virgin Islands.

He was sworn in at Government House moments ago after Governor John Rankin revoked the appointment of disgraced Premier, Andrew Fahie, from that post.

Delivering his first address as Premier at the swearing in ceremony, Dr Wheatley said: “I’m very proud to stand before you today, now officially as Premier of the Virgin Islands. As Premier, I pledge to carry out my duties of office with honesty and integrity and to always do what is in the best interest of the people of the Virgin Islands.”
