2 parties formed by 2 former WPA, JFAP members
…immediately join PNC-led APNU
In a transparent effort of the PNC-dominated APNU to maintain its claim as a broad based “coalition” subsequent to the withdrawal of two of its original members, the Working People’s Alliance (WPA) and the Justice For All Party (JFAP), Jaipaul Sharma and Tabitha Sarabo-Halley, who were former Members of Parliament (MPs) for the JFAP and WPA, respectively, have now started political parties of their own and simultaneously joined APNU. Those applications, according to APNU in its statement, were approved. They now join other mini parties in APNU, such as the Guyana Action Party (GAP), the National Front Alliance (NFA) and the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR).

The announcement was made by the A Partnership for National Unity/Alliance For Change (APNU/AFC) coalition. In the statement, it was noted that Jaipaul Sharma, a former Junior Finance Minister under the former Government, has formed a party called Equal Rights and Justice Party (ERJP).
