Eddie Seaga
Eddie Seaga was a prominent Jamaican politician and the leader of the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) from 1974 to 2005. He served as Prime Minister of Jamaica from 1980 to 1989 and was known for his role in shaping the country's economic policies during a tumultuous political period. Seaga's government focused on economic liberalization and infrastructure development, but his leadership was also marked by significant political conflict, particularly with the opposing People's National Party (PNP). His legacy is often debated, as he is viewed both as a skilled administrator and a polarizing figure in Jamaican politics.
