The Guyana government and the governing People’s Progressive Party (PPP) appear to be increasingly talking about the need for a national alliance in the face of probably another minority government, and at least one opposition party says the time is ripe for power sharing.

Excerpts:
"The Alliance For Change (AFC) on Wednesday forecast that no party would secure a parliamentary majority at the next general elections expected by January 2015"
Ranjattan said the PPP’s call for a national alliance was aimed at mobilizing its supporters so that the party would secure its parliamentary majority that it lost by one seat at the 2011 general and regional elections.
“There are three horses running in this race and I believe that indeed each one has the probability of getting a plurality,”
Ramjattan promised that (if) his party or wins a plurality. The PPPC and APNU would be invited to be part of the government.

Ramjattan's conditional statement that starts with an "IF" is not going to be realised. Therefore the next sentence will not be a reality. Only dreaming.
Statement from Nigel Hughes:
A young man questioned whether it was true that the AFC is about to join with A Partnership for National Unity (APNU). He opined, “if so be the case it will secure a landslide victory for the PPP.
It's good for all parties to think and feel positive about their party's winning edge, but the reality is a whole different game. If you listen to all sides, it still show that the opposition is not sure about joining forces with the AFC, and joining with AFC will give the PPP a landslide victory as Hughes stated. When we hear about fear, we have to wonder who is actually afraid in the run up to election.
