In a recent press conference the AFC stated in part that βThe Party has also dispatched a letter to A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) identifying Mr. Raphael Trotman, Mr. Khemraj Ramjattan, Mr. Clayton Hall, Ms. Cathy Hughes, Mr. Moses Nagamootoo and Mr. Gerhard Ramsaroop as their representatives to bilateral engagements between the two parties.
Meanwhile, Trotman, who was present at the partyβs press conference, said he will not be running for leader of the AFC in the next biennial conference, as it is a conflict of interest for him to hold the position of Speaker and party leader simultaneously.
How can the Speaker retain his current Speakership position and be the partyβs representative to bilateral negotiations. This is corruption, pure and simple.
