Government hints at early poll
GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – President Donald Ramotar has accused the opposition parties of using their one seat majority in the National Assembly to derail legislative democracy as the ruling People’s Progressive Party (PPP) hinted at the possibility of calling a snap general election in Guyana.
“We see that reality happening now in the first instance to elect the Speaker and deputy speaker, they took them both… every area we see them doing these things, passing bills that are unconstitutional,” President Ramotar told a ceremony marking the 16th anniversary of the death of former president Dr. Cheddi Jagan, the founder of the ruling party on Sunday.
Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, who also addressed the ceremony, told supporters “we must reach out to have more citizens casting their vote for the PPPC at the next elections whenever they might be – whether they might be tomorrow or next year or whether we run the full course of five years.
