THE ongoing violence in sections of West Kingston has forced former Prime Minister Edward Seaga to cancel his 80th birthday party which was scheduled to be held at Devon House in St Andrew on Saturday.
Tivoli Gardens was built by Seaga in the late 1960's. The area was originally a slum known as 'Back a Wall'.
<span style="color: #FF0000">The original residents were forced out and replaced them with Seaga's supporters</span>.
<span style="color: #CC0000">Coke's father, Lester Coke, popularly called 'Jim Brown' was a main political activist in Seaga's bid for power in the 1980 elections which ended with more than 800 murders.

'Jim Brown' was mysteriously burnt to death in a cell at the General Penitentiary, now called the Tower Street Adult Correctional Centre, days before he was to be extradited to the United States to face drug charges.
