The PPP are riggers too.  They have not held local government elections for almost 20 years.  At least Burnham under the OLD PNC let you vote then stole your votes.

The PPP simply refuses to let you have the vote.  That's worse than stealing your votes after you vote. THAT'S RIGGING TOO! Ramotar told the Opposition "make up your mind which election you want. You want national elections or local government elections?" That's like Burnham asking you, you want flour or you want electricity?

So the NDCs are non-functioning and that's why there are no local bodies to make sure drains are dug, garbage is picked up, street lights are installed, roads are built and repaired, rice areas canals not dug, etc. In some cases where NDCs are dead, they installed PPP people as IMCs but even these are dead in most places.  And that's why dinosaurs like Green still control Georgetown for so long.
