APNU accuses the PPP of undermining national unity.

Georgetown : Presidential Candidate of A Partnership for National Unity (A.P.N.U), Brigadier (ret) David Granger has accused the People’s Progressive Party/Civic Administration of undermining national unity. He warned that Guyana was becoming more divided because of deliberately divisive government policies. Reports attributed to Wikileaks that were published in the daily newspapers provide evidence of persistent governmental maladministration and of alienation and frustration among the population at large.

A.P.N.U claims that the PPP/C administration seems not to care that its policies continue to divide the nation racially and socially despite the budgetary expenditure of billions of dollars. A.P.N.U cited complaints about specific government actions – concerning the ethnicity of persons who had been appointed to head a majority of the Government agencies and state institutions; to hold ambassadorial positions; to receive major government contracts and to lease agricultural land – have been made by aggrieved citizens over the past 19 years.  These PPP/C governmental practices and policies, as a result, have divided the population into three categories – those who are too afraid to stay; those who are too poor to leave and those who are too greedy to care.
