This "arrangement" was in fact in breach of the constitution and therefore was illegal. The PPP didn't change the constitution during its 23 years in power.
The PPP set a precedent in its extra-constitutional arrangement with Civic regarding which entity is entitled to the presidency and which is relegated to the prime-ministry.
So, it was not surprising that the Cummingsburg Accord apportioned the presidency to APNU and the prime-ministry to the AFC. If President Granger demits office like Janet Jagan, PM Nagamootoo will be sworn in as President as per the Constitution. Within 24 hours APNU Harmon or Williams would be sworn in as Prime Minister, as Jagdeo did in 1999. Later that day Nagamootoo will resign as President and PM Harmon/Williams will become President. His first act in office would be to appoint Nagamootoo as PM as President Jagdeo did to Hinds.
Guyana's politicians smart like Brer Anancy.
