"J’Ouvert bands are resisting the suggestion that they be shifted from Woodbrook and environs to Port-of-Spain for the 2019 Carnival celebrations.
They claim that such a move to the capital city will result in their masqueraders being targeted by the criminal elements and lead to chaos and confusion."
The manager of medium-sized band Jungle Fever who identified himself as Renaud G said he was totally against the relocation.
“Besides, going in town would put expose my masqueraders to risk knowing the crime situation. I cannot depend on the police service to protect them.”

So what about the Woodbrook residents? people come from all over the place and make noise and deface their property, something is terribly wrong with that.
