The Antigua & Barbuda National Congress (ABNC) will not contest the General Elections scheduled for April 30, 2026.

As a new entity, we continue to build, listen and prepare in order to serve the people of Antigua and Barbuda the right way – with steadfast leadership.

While Prime Minister Gaston Browne has the constitutional authority to call early elections, we wish to emphatically state that the process should primarily serve the interest of the people and not political convenience or timing.

We continue in hope for a purposeful future and the opportunity to deliver meaningful change.
