Sir Manuel served as Belize’s second Prime Minister under the United Democratic Party from 1984-1989 and served another term from1993-1998. Sir Manuel was appointed to Her Majesty’s Privy Council by Queen Elizabeth II in 1986 and conferred the title Right Honourable.
On behalf of the United Nations Country Team (UNCT), I would like to convey my deepest condolences to the people of Belize and Esquivel family, on the passing of the former two-term Prime Minister, Sir Manuel Esquivel. He will be remembered as a great educator, politician, and leader as his decade of public service will be a lasting legacy. In this time of mourning, please accept my profound sympathies and our deepest reassurances.
