Mussington protests injustice to disabled Barbudan who, after Irma, continues to live in a tent

Councilman John Mussington is speaking out against an injustice
that reportedly has been done to a disabled Barbudan man, who
apparently was not given one of the houses constructed through an
EU project for the needy.
 
Mussington says that Danny Jeffrey – who suffered an accident as a
teenager and is paralyzed on one side – continues to live in a tent, as
his house has been without a roof since Hurricane Irma destroyed
Barbuda in 2017.


Meanwhile, he says many other able-bodied residents had their
houses repaired or rebuilt by international agencies – except for this
young man who is most needy.
 

According to Mussington, at least one person who is not a native
Barbudan received a home under the EU project, and he considers
this unfair.
 
Six years ago, Mussington says, the Barbuda Council helped Jeffrey
to set up a tent and has been offering him assistance as the need
arises.
 
He says that anyone who wishes to assist the young man can reach
out to him or to the Council.
