THE plot to create mayhem and a state of emergency in Guyana as part of efforts to grab power by the combined opposition, A Partnership for National Unity (APNU)and Alliance for Change (AFC) has been exposed following reports that the APNU is in favour of snap elections now.

The Guyana Times reported that the Chief Whip of APNU, Amna Ally, stated she believes her party is ready for a snap election, if called at this time in Guyana.
Asked whether the party was using motions and other parliamentary tactics to frustrate the running People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) administration into calling elections, Ally said no.
Another executive of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR)––a party now synonymous with APNU–– is also quoted as saying that the conditions following the Linden and Agricola unrest and alleged police excesses have resulted in the parliamentary coalition “feeling confident”.
On the other hand, many political analysts disagree with the APNU-PNCR's opinion, saying they could be reading the voters wrong. They believe the Linden and Agricola mayhem, both well supported by the combined opposition, has led to stronger support for the ruling party, which won the last elections by more than 20000 votes.
Attorney General and Legal Affairs Minister, Anil Nandlall, had said publicly on TV's Current Issues and Analysis Show, with Senior Journalist Michael Younge, that “the AFC and APNU are out to create mayhem and mischief with the aim of making the country ungovernable, while seeking to propel itself into power through the back door”.
Nandlall argued that the ruling administration was not going to give in to any form of pressure from the APNU-led opposition, which now has the support of the AFC. He reminded citizens that they must beware of the unfolding plot which started with the street demonstrations following the November 28 elections, and then quickly saw the opposition eroding all of the parliamentary norms and principles.
The AG accused the APNU/AFC of further scheming to unseat the PPP administration by seeking to “falsely lay corruption allegations at its doorstep each time a new transformation project was endorsed or announced by the government”.
Meanwhile, Agriculture Minister Dr Leslie Ramsammy has also warned PPP supporters not to fall prey to the violence and street protest behaviours being endorsed by the David Granger-led opposition, as he commented on the atrocities committed during the recent Agricola unrest.
“You can’t on one hand bring the people there to protest and then when the protest becomes violent, they are the government’s people”, Ramsammy noted on another edition of TV's CIA.
