“This party brings freedom that comes under threat and this party led the way to return to freedom…The party is growing stronger every minute…The entire campaign in all Local Government Election in Guyana was positive,” General Secretary said to the large crowd.
He said come 2025 an overwhelming victory will be possible if the citizens continue to support and work with the PPP/C.
The PPP/C now controls 67 of the 80 Local Authority Areas (LAAs) following the LGEs and was able to garner more votes in the thousands in regions and communities that historically supported the A Partnership for National Unity (APNU).
With a higher voter turnout in Georgetown this year, moving from 24 to 29 per cent, the PPP/C picked up well over 5000 additional votes, while the votes for APNU dropped by the hundreds.
According to the Vice President, in Region Two the PPP/C won all the NDCs. He extended his party’s appreciation to the candidates and the supporters.
Also attending the Public “Thank You” meeting were Agriculture Minister Zulfikar Mustapha, Regional Chairperson Vilma De Silva, Regional Vice Chairman Himace Oodit among other regional officials.
