– says Party fully committed to “people-centred” governance-style

General Secretary (GS) of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Dr Bharrat Jagdeo says the governing party is well-positioned ahead of the 2031 General and Regional Elections, citing its people-centred approach. Jagdeo, who currently serves as Vice President (VP) in the present Administration, made these remarks following a successful public day event in Linden, Region 10 (Upper Demerara-Berbice) earlier this week. According to Jagdeo, that engagement, which saw scores of residents in attendance, demonstrates the ruling party’s commitment to remaining open, accessible, and responsive to the needs of Guyanese.

“What you [saw there] is just typical of the PPP management style. We have always been accessible to the people on the ground, and we continue to do so – from the President [Dr Irfaan Ali] to almost all the Ministers. We kept that essential feature of the party open,” the GS posited. This approach, he emphasised, is different from the aloofness displayed under the previous People’s National Congress (PNC)-led A Partnership for National Unity + Alliance For Change (APNU+AFC) Coalition regime during the 2015 to 2020 period.
