De­spite the Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment (PNM) unan­i­mous­ly se­lect­ing Pen­ne­lope Beck­les as its Op­po­si­tion Leader and its gen­er­al coun­cil elect­ing a new chair­man and vice chair­man, not every­one is con­vinced the par­ty is uni­fied.

In fact, po­lit­i­cal an­a­lyst Dr Shane Mo­hammed says, de­spite the re­cent shake-up, the par­ty is not yet stur­dy.

Mo­hammed told Guardian Me­dia that Dr Nyan Gads­by-Dol­ly’s nar­row de­feat over Port-of-Spain may­or Chin­ua Al­leyne for chair­man on Tues­day sug­gests se­ri­ous in­ter­nal rifts.
