Former West Indies fast bowler and recently-appointed President of the St. Elizabeth Cricket Association, Darren Powell, is hoping to don a new hat soon.
The 33-year-old businessman has his sights set on representational politics.
A son of the soil, Mr. Powell says since his return to the parish from cricketing duties and work overseas, he had been wooed by several persons in Malvern to enter politics.
Mr. Powell says he refrained as he didn't want to enter politics without the right support and backing.
Mr. Powell says his mind is now made up. If successful, he is hoping to unseat incumbent, the Jamaica labour Party's Donald Simpson.
The former West Indies fastbowler is not alone in is quest as another aspirant Barbara Gayle is also hoping to unseat Mr. Simpson.
Mr. Powell says he stands ready to work for the Party in spite of any decision.
