Reports reaching Guyana Times Sport indicate that Athletics Association of Guyana (AAG) President Aubrey Hutson was on Saturday afternoon suspended from his post at the helm of the association.
The decision to suspend Hutson for a particular period of time was taken at an AAG General Council meeting on Saturday afternoon at the National Racquet Center on Woolford Avenue.
The suspension will also go hand-in-hand with a pending investigation.
Hutson’s suspension comes on the heels of a travel fiasco involving the CARIFTA Games 2023 team this week, in which the Government of Guyana (GoG) had to intervene. With the topic trending across social media over the last week, there had been numerous calls for Hutson’s removal or resignation.
As a result of Hutson’s suspension, AAG First Vice-President Amanda Hermonstine is likely to take over the reins of the Association.
The AAG last hosted elections in 2021, when Hutson was elected as President for a third term.
