Finance Minister Jordon argues that the EXXON contract cannot be released because the PPP signed a non-disclosure clause. It's, of course, a lie. But APNU+AFC wanted people to believe that they brought EXXON and oil to Guyana. Now they have admitted that EXXON and oil represent another PPP success story. As to their argument that they are bounded by this PPP contract, how come they were not bounded by the Amaila Hydropower contract? How come they were not bounded by the guarantee to keep all sugar estates open? How come they were not bounded by the agreement to provide every child with an annual subsidy? It was $10,000 per child and was supposed to be increased annually. How come they were not bounded to provide pensioners with subsidies for water and electricity?
