September 8, 2014 · By Gaulbert Sutherland ·
AFC chairman Nigel Hughes has endorsed the party’s vice-chairman Moses Nagamootoo to be the Presidential candidate for the next general elections and says that he is willing to serve in any position to which he is elected by the membership.
“I fully support (AFC leader Khemraj Ramjattan’s) nomination for Nagamootoo to be the presidential candidate,” Hughes told Stabroek News yesterday. On Saturday, Ramjattan told Stabroek News that he supports a Nagamootoo/Hughes ticket for general elections and said that he believes that they are a team capable of running the party and they can gain countrywide support. Noting that he was speaking in his personal capacity, he endorsed Nagamootoo for the position of Presidential candidate and Hughes to be the Prime Ministerial candidate.
