Georgetown, Guyana. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – to all media November 13th, 2026 PRESS RELEASE
A TRIBUTE TO THE LATE EUSI KWAYANA-A National Hero Whose Ideas Transcended Political Boundaries
The Alliance For Change (AFC) joins the nation in mourning the passing of Elder Eusi Kwayana, an extraordinary Guyanese whose life, convictions and enduring contribution to our country’s political and social development have earned him a place among our most distinguished national figures.
Although Mr. Kwayana did not engage the AFC directly during its formative years, his ideas, vision, principles and lifelong commitment to justice, equality, democracy and national consciousness were among the guiding lights that informed the values upon which the AFC was established. His influence extended far beyond the boundaries of any one political organisation or generation.
Indeed, it is difficult to contemplate the evolution of postindependence Guyana’s political landscape without acknowledging the profound contribution of Eusi Kwayana. Every political party that emerged in this period owes, in some great measure, a debt to the political consciousness, ideas and struggles to which he forged and contributed.
Alongside Hubert Critchlow, Cheddi Jagan, Forbes Burnham and Walter Rodney, Eusi Kwayana stands tall among the individuals whose lives and contributions helped shape the CENTRE FOR CHANGE | 26 RAILWAY LINE Embankment, KITTY. GEORGETOWN, GUYANA | (592)-223-29334 political identity and historical trajectory of Guyana. His was a voice that challenged, questioned, inspired and insisted that the pursuit of a better Guyana must always be grounded in principle and a commitment to the people.
His legacy is not confined to the political movements he helped shape, the causes he championed or the generations he influenced. It lives on in the ideas he planted, the questions he encouraged us to ask and the enduring belief that nationbuilding must transcend partisan interests and serve the greater Good.
Guyana has lost a remarkable patriot, an intellectual and a principled advocate whose contribution will continue to resonate long after his passing.
The AFC extends its deepest and most sincere condolences to his grieving family, friends, colleagues, comrades and all those whose lives he touched. May they find comfort in the knowledge that his contribution to Guyana will not be forgotten. May his soul rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to illuminate the path towards a more just, democratic and united Guyana.
