Life

A relative political newcomer, Aikman was first elected to the Belize House as a member of the United Democratic Party in 1984, defeating sitting Prime Minister George Cadle Price in what was considered a major upset.[1]

In opposition to the UDP-supported Maritime Areas Bill, along with Albert Area Rep. Philip Goldson Aikman joined the newly formed National Alliance for Belizean Rights in January 1992.

Aikman was declared bankrupt and expelled from the Belize House in December 1992, becoming the first Belizean area representative to leave office mid-term since independence.[2] Eventually rejoining the UDP, Aikman attempted a political comeback in Fort George in 1998, but was soundly defeated by the incumbent, People's United Party leader Said Musa.[3]

He died at the age of 59 on March 2, 2019.[4]

gollark: PotatOS is able to make omnidisks somewhat unduplicateable, *but* that only works because their value comes from being cryptographically signed and able to run in privileged mode on potatOS - you can run them anywhere else, it just won't be useful.
gollark: Anyway, you can't really copy-protect software in CC. At all. The best you can do is use a bunch of obfuscation techniques together to make it mildly hard to do anything with it, and add some code to check computer ID or something.
gollark: I really ought to move to osmarks.net or something for critical services like the potatOS backend servers.

gollark: They really should use potatOS's *good* UUID generator.
