The People’s United Party is saddened by the news of the passing of Mr. Peters, a Belizean icon.
Mr. Peters dedicated his life to the service of our nation through his beloved brukdong music and his Boom and Chime Band helped to put Belizean music on the map. His contribution to Belizean culture, his love for Belize and for music made him one of our national treasures.
The PUP extends condolences to his family and friends and we remain grateful for the life and contribution of this national hero.
May he rest in peace.
