Dr David Hinds to lead WPA in 2025 national elections

The Working Peoples’ Alliance (WPA) on Saturday declared that it has selected Dr. David Hinds as its presidential candidate and the leader of its list of candidates for the 2025 general and regional elections.
Hinds, a longstanding member of the WPA, has also been appointed a co-leader of the party.

“WPA feels that Dr. Hinds brings to the new roles a wealth of political experience and knowledge of Guyanese politics and society. He has also emerged as one of the major social and political influencers in our country. Through his daily program, Politics 101, he has developed a political following which WPA feels could help increase electoral support for our party in the coming elections,” a release from the party on Saturday stated.
Moreover, the WPA has said it has appointed a new executive to lead the party in the coming period. Members of that executive include Dr David Hinds, Tacuma Ogunseye and Rohit Kanhai as co-leaders; Dr. Rupert Roopnaraine, Dr. Clive Thomas and Dr. Maurice Odle as elders; Deon Abrams as Chairman; Kidackie Amsterdam as Organizing Secretary; Desmond Trotman as Administrative Secretary; Keith Branch as Overseas/ Diaspora Secretary, and Dr. Dennis Canterbury as Economic Policy Secretary.
The WPA has said that, in the coming months, it intends to launch its campaign with initial outreaches to communities across the country. Those outreaches are aimed at reintroducing the party to society, and “putting our platform to the broad masses of people”. The party also intends to use that opportunity to increase its membership and support base.
