Jagdeo boycott?
The big GMSA dinner and annual awards at the Princess Hotel which is a usually packed event, saw unusually low turnout last evening. The feature speaker was former President Bharrat Jagdeo.
It is understood that several members of the diplomatic corps shunned the event leaving several empty seats which had to be hastily filled by PPP-ites. Several members of the GMSA also did not attend the event which they have routinely attended in the past.
Media representatives were also prevented from attending the event, being told that it was a private function. Apparently only select media were permitted entry.
