Gary Griffith has resigned as Political Leader of the NTA.

In a statement, the party says his decision, while deeply significant, was made with “thoughtful reflection and in the spirit of accountability and integrity”.

Several members of the NTA’s Governance Team have also stepped down from their respective positions.

Deputy Political Leader, Commander Norman Dindial, has since agreed to assume the role of Interim Political Leader, with internal elections to take place on September 5th 2025.

At this time, all governance team positions will be contested.

The NTA’s statement says “These changes mark a moment of transition — not of dissolution, but of renewal. The NTA remains firmly committed to the principles on which it was founded: people-first leadership, transformational governance, and a future-focused agenda for Trinidad and Tobago.”
