“We will not be threatened or intimidated” – APNU

Georgetown : A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) says the opposition is disappointed by the views expressed by President Donald Ramotar in his address to the nation last evening It clear that President Ramotar is trying to intimidate the opposition by threatening General and Regional Elections and putting Local Government Elections far into the future. APNU will not be threatened or intimidated.

After deliberately delaying the post –recess sitting  of the  National Assembly by several weeks, APNU feels strongly that the President’s new found urgency to bring to the floor of the National Assembly “urgent matters…in  the interest of the people of Guyana” to be disingenuous.

APNU views the President’s ‘threat’ to prorogue or dissolve the Parliament as a cowardly. The Parliament is intended to be a place for debate.  President Ramotar is choosing to dissolve Parliament instead of facing up to a debate on the PPP/C’s abysmal record in office.
