MHPM Holness Heroes' Day Message 2026 @Oct 19 2026 05:00 AM
In his Heroes’ Day message to the nation, Prime Minister Dr. The Most Honourable Andrew Holness reflects on the struggles and sacrifices of our ancestors in the fight for freedom and the foundational principles our National Heroes left behind for generations of Jamaicans. As Jamaica looks toward recovery and rebuilding in the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, the Prime Minister underscores the importance of resilience, unity, and national responsibility. He calls on all Jamaicans to embrace their role in rebuilding the country, not simply to restore what was lost, but to build back stronger, safer, and more resilient for future generations. This Heroes’ Day, we honour the courage, vision, and determination of those who paved the way for our freedom, while recognising that the responsibility to shape Jamaica’s future rests with all of us. Watch the full message and reflect on the legacy of our heroes and our shared responsibility to build a stronger Jamaica.
