Two former MPs who served in Parliament with Wilchcombe say the one who follows will have some big shoes to fill.

Following the death of West Grand Bahama and Bimini MP Obie Wilchcombe, Prime Minister Phillip Davis will have to call a bi-election within the next few weeks.

Our News understands both the Free National Movement and Progressive Liberal Party have already started looking for potential candidates.

Former Youth, Sports and Culture Minister Dr. Daniel Johnson says bi-elections aren’t easy.
