Working Peopleâs Alliance (WPA) Executive Member and Buxtonian Morning Time host Kidackie Amsterdam is urging Guyanese from all sectors of society to join a nationwide protest against the Governmentâs proposed Former Presidentsâ Facilities and Benefits Bill 2026, arguing that Parliament is prioritizing expanded privileges for former Heads of State while many citizens continue to struggle with the rising cost of living and inadequate public services.
In a statement issued Sunday, Amsterdam called on trade unions, religious organisations, community groups, youth organizations, private sector bodies, civic organisations and concerned citizens to participate in a peaceful demonstration on Monday, July 6, from 10:00 a.m. at Church of God Road, Buxton, while encouraging similar protests in communities across the country.
âThe people of Guyana are once again being called upon to defend the principles of fairness, accountability and responsible governance,â Amsterdam declared.
