ST. GEORGE’S, Grenada, CMC – The ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) says agriculture minister Michael Denis Lett, who died from prostate cancer on Monday will be remembered for “his selfless dedication to service, his wisdom and patience as a leader (and) his ability to work across the political divide”. It said Grenada would also remember Lett, 74, for his “heroic stand in defense of the people’s right of access to the La Sagesse beach in 1973 and his willingness to sacrifice his freedom in defense of his principles. “His dedicated and enlightened leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture has directly led in the emergence of Agriculture as one of the leading growth sectors in our nation’s economy,” said the NDC, which is preparing for a general election on February 19.
