Jagdeo visits Linden, listens to residents’ concerns

– gets warm welcome from Lindeners

Former President now Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo visited Linden in Region 10 (Upper Demerara-Berbice) on Wednesday where he, and his team, met informally with residents, many of whom raised issues and concerns affecting them, their community and the country as a whole.

The Opposition Leader met residents informally in the streets, markets, shops, etc, during a walkabout of the mining town. He also addressed residents as a group and listened to their concerns, giving them the opportunity of having their voices heard. Accompanying the Opposition Leader were former Minister Robeson Benn and People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Member of Parliament, Nigel Dharamlall, among others. Below are a few scenes of Jagdeo’s visit to Linden, captured by Guyana Times photographer Carl Croker.
