And the PPP/C struggling to get their act together. 

Have you noticed the Central Committee of the PNC(R) don't elect the Leader or Chairman,vice Chairman and other officials of the Party.The Party election method for officials is still the same from the split of the PPP.

Is that transparent ???

PNCR used youths as “props” but very few elected to Central Executive – Jagdeo

Posted by: Denis Chabrol in News, PoliticsAugust 23, 20181 Comment

Opposition Leader, Bharrat Jagdeo.

Opposition Leader, Bharrat Jagdeo on Thursday accused the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) of again using youths as tokens at their just concluded Biennial Delegates Congress because the majority of the executive has been stacked with old people.

Jagdeo also observed that Volda Lawrence was elected Chairperson of her political party without a commanding majority of the just over 800 delegates who cast ballots in last Sunday’s internal elections. “What I do know is that not a single one of the three persons who contested commanded a majority of the delegates and that’s an extremely weak position to be in and to move forward in,” he said.

Jagdeo noted that Lawrence garnered 42 percent, Joseph Harmon 35 percent and Basil Williams about 22 percent.  “If you calculate what Volda got on the basis of the attendance of the delegates, her votes, then it’s under 35 percent of the delegates who attended the Congress voted for Volda Lawrence so that’s an extremely weak position to be in as a leader or the Chairman of your party,” he said.

Speaking at a news conference, the PPP General Secretary charged that youths were used as “props” in the run-up to the PNCR’s elections and then they were abandoned in the polling booths in favour of much older persons.

In terms of young people, only 38-year old Christopher Jones and 2nd Vice Chairperson, 40-year old Annette Ferguson and 37-year old Thandi Mc Allister were elected to sit on their party’s Central Executive. The others are in their 50s and 60s.

Comparing the PNCR to his PPP, Jagdeo said his party not only campaigns on the theme of youths but many young people have been elected to the Central Committee. “The outcome of their elections and the Central Committee now…we looked through the names and the majority of the people there, overwhelming majority, are people over 60 years and so once again, within the party and elsewhere, young people were just used as props,” said Jagdeo, a former President. He boasted that the PPP government included many youths, young attendees at its congress, elected to the central and executive committees.

Lawrence and Harmon specifically had targeted youths in their countrywide campaigns to party faithful. “I saw young people being used again as props- nice photo opportunities with young people- we saw that before 2015; a lot of young people in all these wonderful ads that they had…then the young people suddenly disappeared from the scene and they reappeared when there was a need for them to change their image so all of the candidates started taking pictures with young people again.

Jagdeo has become a chronic complainer. dem ole people used to say when big tree fall dunk, even goat ah eat he leaf. 

Again this idiot thinks he is relevant, now he's playing the role of PNCR consultant.

Why doesn't this man Jagdeo focus on HIS OWN party which apparently has ZERO transparency in such matters? He is complaining about a group which at least has some transparent process while he has NONE. WTF is wrong with these people?????????

All groups in all Guyana should demand transparency and accountability from their elected officials.

PPP doesn't have Chairman or Vice-Chairman. It has a General Secretary aka Leader whom the Central Committee elects. The CC also elects secretaries for specific portfolios like finance, agriculture, education etc.

Look how Jagdeo snatch away the attention of this PNC thread.  And he didn't even have to try.

Dad's army really haven't taken to Volda winning very well have they 

Volda, Annette, Sherod Duncan, Charles Ramson and maybe Ralph if he's not to battle weary - Just go it alone 

They would beat the PPP and PNCR - Both  are disgustingly woeful

The PNCR (lets forget this APNU) tag it's the same old PNCR - Getting scared because there old dogs are not getting there way and worried for there pensions

How is any new leader of the PPP going to follow the Jagdeo pony show - Just keep quiet you've had your chance and blew it . When the biggest drug dealing was paying teachers wages - Come on Now ...And Guyana was on the cusp of being a NARCO state under your watch...Who you kidding

We have to break the strangle hold these two parties have over us even if that means forcing them into a meaningful coalition (unlike the naive AFC)

The youth, amerindian and mixed vote is very much up for grabs
