GEORGETOWN – A Partnership for National Unity + The Alliance for Change (APNU+AFC) calls attention to the shameless nepotism evident on the Peoples Progressive Party (PPP’s) list of candidates for the May 11th General and Regional Elections.
There are more than a dozen close relatives of current and former senior PPP officials on the list. This is a clear example of what APNU and the AFC have said time and time again – that the PPP has degenerated from a working class party to a small cabal of family and friends.
The PPP’s ‘Friends and Family List’ confirms their shameless, blatant and unbridled nepotism which the PPP continues to throw in the faces of the people of this nation. The PPP is effectively admitting to the nation that the small cabal at Freedom House sees this nation as their personal possession not only to do as they please but also to hand down and apportion to their heirs and progeny.
Clement Rohee and his daughter Rima Rohee are on the PPP list.
Dr. Roger Luncheon and his daughter Thandi Luncheon are on the PPP list.
Indra Chandrapal and her son Rabin Chandrapal are on the PPP list.
Gail Teixeira and her daughter Colleen Teixeira-Khan are on the PPP list.
Donald Ramotar and his son Alexei Ramotar are on the PPP list.
Frank Anthony and his wife Shanti Singh-Anthony are on the PPP list.
Robeson Benn and his sister Vanessa Benn are on the PPP list.
In addition former ministers Charles Ramson Sr and Haripersaud Nokta have their sons Charles Ramson Jr and Shyam Nokta on the PPP list.
APNU+AFC calls on all Guyanese to reject the nepotistic PPP regime and vote for change on May 11th.
APNU+AFC has presented a diverse, credible and qualified list of candidates based on meritocracy and consensus. The Coalition has received the support of the majority of Guyanese and invites those who have not yet made up their minds to join the Unity Train to victory on May 11th.
