PPP/C Presidential Candidate obtains doctorate from UWI

 

People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Presidential Candidate Irfaan Ali has graduated from the University of the West Indies with a Doctorate of Philosophy in Urban and Regional Planning.

PPP Presidential Candidate Irfaan Ali

Ali was listed to receive the Doctor of Philosophy degree during a graduation ceremony at the UWI’s St Augustine Campus in Trinidad.
At his weekly press conference on Thursday, PPP General Secretary Bharrat Jagdeo extended congratulations to Ali.
“I would also like to congratulate our presidential candidate for attaining his doctorate at the University of the West Indies,” the Opposition Leader said.
Prior to and even after his election as Presidential Candidate back in January this year, Ali had come under scrutiny over his academic qualifications – something which both he and the Party had defended over the past year.
In fact, during a press conference back in April, Ali maintained that he was an honest candidate and had what it took to carry the Party to victory at the upcoming elections.
“I am an honest candidate; secondly, I am very comfortable with my qualifications … I’m very comfortable with who I am; I’m very comfortable as the presidential candidate and my focus now is to take the PPP/Civic onto victory, to create a better Guyana for all Guyanese, to create better opportunities for all of Guyana. That is where my focus, my energy, and life is concentrated on,” the Presidential Candidate told reporters earlier this year.
Further, Ali posited that he was confident that he has the competency and experience to lead Guyana into a brighter future under a PPP/C regime.
Only recently, Jagdeo had reiterated the PPP’s confidence in the Presidential Candidate.
Since becoming the Party’s Presidential Candidate, Ali has been conducting an outreach programme, visiting and interacting with residents across the country as well as Guyanese living overseas during which he shares PPP’s development policy. In fact, he has already spoken about policies in major sectors such as: the economy, education, security, mining, and forestry among others.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – The new president of Guyana – David Arthur Granger – is the first Hubert H. Humphrey Fellow to become his nation’s head of state.

Granger came to the U.S. – and the University of Maryland’s Journalism school – twenty years ago for the one-year program that was started by President Jimmy Carter in 1978.

The Humphrey Fellowship Program at UMD is funded by U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and administered by the Institute of International Education and the Philip Merrill College of Journalism.

“In the program’s 22 years at the Philip Merrill College of Journalism, the vast majority of our Humphrey Fellows have gone on to senior leadership positions in their home countries, but none has risen as high as President Granger,” said University of Maryland President Wallace D. Loh.  “We wish him and the Guyanese people the very best.”

Granger began his professional career in Guyana’s military. By age 34 he was commander of the South American nation¹s defense force. Ultimately he attained the rank of Brigadier and was appointed National Security Adviser to Guyana’s president.

After leaving the military, he established the first Guyanese publishing house – launching several independent publications including the Guyana Review news magazine. He applied to the Humphrey Fellowship Program in 1994 with the desire to learn more about publishing, layout, design and editing. He affiliated with the American Journalism Review during his year in College Park.
