Former A Partnership for National Unity/Alliance For Change (APNU/AFC) parliamentarian Charrandas Persaud made an appearance at Wednesday’s sitting of the National Assembly at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre.
His appearance raised questions since members of the public are not permitted to physically view the proceedings in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Persaud rose to prominence following his “yes vote” on a no-confidence motion against the APNU/AFC Government on the night of December 21, 2018.
He had departed Guyana immediately for Canada on the night the coalition Government crumbled, out of fear for his life.
Persaud returned to Guyana following the swearing-in of Dr Irfaan Ali as President of Guyana on August 2, 2020.
On Wednesday, he was confronted by Opposition Member of Parliament (MP), Sherod Duncan and there was an exchange of words between the two in the lobby of the ACCC.
