The Rastafarian movement in Dominica has thrown its support behind the Trinidad-based Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ).
The movement says it is urging Caribbean leaders to exercise guts and make the institution their final court of appeal.
Spokesman for the Group, Ras Bernard Shaw, described the failure to participate fully in the CCJ as a form of mental slavery.He said this is hindering the development of Caribbean people. Mr. Shaw added that the Caribbean was sending the wrong message to the international community by not accepting the court. According to him, the non-acceptance of the court by some Caribbean countries was also a shame to African ancestors.
Caribbean countries established the CCJ nearly two years ago as a replacement for the London-based Privy Council. But while most states are members of the court as it relates to its original jurisdiction, only Barbados and Guyana utilize its appellate services.
