The People’s National Party (PNP), led by Mark Golding, would dominate the government during the next general elections, making cultural icon Louise Bennett-Coverley and Jamaican reggae sensation Bob Marley national heroes.
According to the constitution, the elections must be held by September.

The Opposition Leader, Golding, stated that designating Bennett-Cloverley and Marley as national heroes “will be a priority action when we form the government.”
“We will confer the Order of National Hero on the Honorable Louise Bennett-Cloverley, making her our second female National Heroine.”
He said that while Jamaica solidifies the essence of Marley’s famous worldwide hymn, “One Love,” a PNP-led administration will likewise honor the importance of the “fi wi” language in identification and expression.
