Description

OUR NEWS — Tuesday, October 7th, 2025 | A new US Ambassador is confirmed for the Bahamas tonight, marking the first time in nearly 15 years the nation has hosted one, amid growing tensions over Chinese investment in the region. The Golden Isles seat remains a political hot topic following the death of MP Vaughn Miller, with three hopefuls publicly expressing interest as the Prime Minister encourages supporters to "stay alert" for a possible by-election or even an early general election. In Grand Bahama, a woman is recovering after a shocking attack where police say the suspect doused and lit her on fire during a robbery, while on New Providence, a deadly ambush outside a Seabreeze home has left a community shaken and living in fear. Plus, we cover the collapse of a school ceiling in Grand Bahama, and the push by Grove West homeowners for the government to rethink the location of a proposed specialty hospital over flooding and noise concerns.
