GUYANA: How genuine is Granger’s call for unity?
President David Granger appealed for Guyana’s multi-ethnic population to unite to help spur inclusive socio-economic development during his official inauguration on the 49th anniversary of Guyana’s independence on 29 May. Just a day earlier former president Bharrat Jagdeo (1999-2011), a member of the opposition People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) which lost power after 23 years at the helm, was charged with inciting racial hatred for comments he allegedly made ahead of the 11 May general elections.
