Afro-Guyanese migration toward PPPC reflects growing confidence in ‘One Guyana’ Vision

Dear Editor,
As Guyana approaches the pivotal 2025 General Elections, the political landscape is undergoing a quiet but powerful transformation. A growing number of Afro-Guyanese citizens are migrating their support towards the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPPC), signalling a broader acceptance of the ‘One Guyana’ Vision spearheaded by President Irfaan Ali and Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo.
What was once perceived as rigid political division along ethnic lines is now shifting as more middle- and lower-income Guyanese recognize tangible benefits in their communities under the current administration. From expanded infrastructure to job creation to housing initiatives to prioritization of inclusive development, the PPPC has made visible strides in reaching all segments of the population.
The Afro-Guyanese community, often sidelined by traditional political narratives, is now finding a renewed sense of inclusion and opportunity. For many families, the realization that their future — especially the futures of their children — are brighter under this Government’s leadership has become a motivating factor for political alignment.
“The evidence is on the ground,” one community member shared. “Roads, schools, jobs and youth programs are touching everyone. It’s not about race anymore; it’s about results.”
In stark contrast, the political Opposition appears unprepared, lacking a clear vision or agenda to contest the 2025 elections. Their silence on developmental plans has further alienated voters searching for leadership rooted in action, not rhetoric.
The ‘One Guyana’ initiative, once considered ambitious, is now being lived in real time by thousands across the nation. From Linden to Lethem, from Corentyne to Georgetown, the message is consistent: progress is happening, and it’s being felt by all.
The evolving political shift is not just a story of votes; it’s a story of hope, inclusion, and shared national pride. And as Guyanese from all walks of life continue to rally behind the PPPC, it becomes clear that a united Guyana is not just a vision, but is becoming a reality.

Yours sincerely,
