The Vigilant Political Action Committee (VPAC), headed by social activist Dorwain Bess, has entered the growing debate over opposition representation on the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), arguing that the electoral body’s composition should reflect Guyana’s dramatically altered parliamentary landscape following the 2025 General and Regional Elections.

In a social media statement, VPAC addressed the ongoing disagreement between Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed and Aubrey Norton, Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) and Chairman of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), over the future of opposition representation on GECOM.

The issue emerged after the September 2025 elections reshaped the opposition benches in Parliament. Mohamed’s We Invest in Nationhood (WIN) secured 16 seats, making it the largest opposition bloc, while APNU secured 12 seats and the Forward Guyana Movement (FGM), led by Amanza Walton-Desir, secured one seat. Mohamed was subsequently elected Leader of the Opposition.
