Georgetown : At a media briefing this afternoon, the Alliance for Change notes with concern and disappointment the pronouncements recently made by the newly appointed PPP/C Presidential candidate Mr. Donald Ramotar to the effect that “Our Constitution is probably superior to many Constitutions in the world”. The AFC believes that such a statement reflects Mr. Ramotar’s inadequate knowledge of what 21st century democratic constitutions contain.
The AFC has expressed profound disagreement with article 182 (1) which says “subject to the provisions of article 180, the holder of the office of President shall not be personally answerable to any court for the performance of his office or for any act done in the performance of those functions and no proceeding, whether criminal or civil, shall be instituted against him in his personal capacity in respect thereof either during his term of office or thereafter.”
