APNU’s plan to unseat the PPP/C has backfired on them

Dear Editor,
The grand plan by former Opposition Leader Aubrey Norton to unseat the PPP/C Party, or at least push them into a minority party in Government, has backfired on them. That fallout came as a result of the newcomer Azruddin Mohamed stealing all of APNU’s votes, relegating that party into a minority place in the opposition. Norton is now in a quandary, or, as we say in Creole, he is on the shame bench crying out loud, not knowing what to do next.
I would use another Guyanese Creole proverb, “Yuh see ting a bush, yuh tek am bring am home,” meaning, Azruddin Mohamed was in the wilderness with his sanctions; APNU should have left him there, but the smart-ass APNU encouraged him to come into the political race to, in Creole, “double bank” the PPP/C, but that plan failed miserably. Instead of stealing PPP/C votes, Azruddin Mohamed stole most of the votes from PNC strongholds; a classic case is in Linden, and Region 10, which is a PNC stronghold, saw a resounding win for the WIN Party. It is absolutely clear that the plan by APNU backfired on them in a significant way, causing that party to be in a minority position. What a shocking revelation! No more can we quote the PNC as an opposition! Another shocker is the PPP/C’s resounding success in Region Four; what a change!
With more than 46,000 votes, the PPP/C has won by a landslide, and now it is time to move on. The PNC is still reeling from the shock defeat and has called for a recount; that exercise is in progress. Quoting GECOM’s Commissioner Sase Gunraj, “The recount is just to confirm the inevitable.”
The General Election 2025 has established three things: (a) racial voting is a thing of the past, (b) rigging is dead, and so is the PNC/APNU party, and (c) the PPP/C stands out as the only party that the people of this country have their highest regard for. In light of the above, let us join hands with the PPP/C and move this country forward.

Yours respectfully,
Neil Adams
