‘I’LL DO MY PART’ No.105578

… President says collaboration needed to resolve political challenges

… defends legitimacy of Government; awaiting GECOM work plan to declare date for elections … urges citizens not to be intimidated by incendiary 03&05 insinuations PAGES

“THE resolution of the present political challenges requires collaboration. I am prepared to do my part to ensure credible elections within “…the shortest time possible” this year. The decisions which have to be made and the actions which need to be taken, however, are not mine alone. I rely on the Commission’s readiness, the provision of funds and the extension of time, by the National Assembly, to conduct credible elections. I rely on the outcome of legal challenges by the Court of Appeal. I rely, also, on public confidence in the institutions responsible for executing these processes. They demand political cooperation, not confrontation. Guyanese, it is my desire that credible elections be held in the shortest possible time. I shall continue to ensure that Government’s actions are consistent and are in compliance with the Constitution and assure citizens of a credible electoral process. I urge everyone not to be intimidated by incendiary insinuations aimed at instigating disaffection which could affect preparations for elections. I assure everyone that the Government will spare no effort to protect your fundamental rights and freedoms. Guyanese, I am confident that the path we have chosen is the best for the nation.”

President David Granger
