The United National Congress (UNC) has emerged victorious in the 2025 General Election, securing a clear lead over its competitors and reclaiming political momentum. Supporters gathered in droves outside the party’s headquarters late Monday evening, transforming the venue into a vibrant celebration awash in the party’s signature yellow.
As votes continued to be tallied into the night, the mood at UNC’s base was one of unshakable confidence. The preliminary results indicated a strong performance across several key constituencies, with the party claiming a majority of the seats up for grabs. Chants, music, and dancing marked the occasion as party faithful embraced the unfolding win.
In her address to the nation, Prime Minister-elect Kamla Persad-Bissessar delivered a passionate victory speech, vowing to uphold her campaign promises and steer the country toward a more inclusive and prosperous future. She proudly echoed the party’s campaign slogan: “When UNC wins, everybody wins,” drawing cheers from the energized crowd.
According to early projections, the UNC captured 25 of the 41 parliamentary seats, putting it in a commanding position to form the next government. While official results are still pending, the numbers suggest a clear mandate from the electorate.
With the dust settling on the 2025 elections, the UNC now turns its attention to governance. Expectations are high, and all eyes will be on Persad-Bissessar’s administration to deliver on the ambitious pledges made throughout the campaign.
