And he's hoping to complete this project and many others before he leaves politics for good. Today Espat told us that he's honored to have been endorsed once again in Cayo South this past Sunday, but that he only has one more term left in him.
Julius Espat, Minister of Infrastructure Dev. & Housing
"That's a political, that's a phase. The party decided that they wanted all area reps to throw in their names and open it up. That was a time frame, was it a month, two months? Two months and nobody submitted their name in poor little Cayo South so you know, I was the only one left and we will continue with pride to serve our people. So to me it's an honor. Two times in opposition, one time in government, hopefully one more time, I don't think it will be more than one more time. The grey hairs are coming out, the stress on the family is immense, the love and dedication and passion that I have takes a bit out of you but I don't do it anyway else or any other way. I am given a responsibility and I will do it to the best of my ability and when I can't do it anymore, I'll mentor somebody else to move on, that's what we have to do. But I'm not a career politician, I think one more shot and that will be enough for me."
Espat has served three terms and is now going for a fourth.
