Granger returns in familiar ‘sanctimonious tone’...

“Fourthly, Mr. Granger’s lecture to Guyanese on the issue of trust warrants underscoring that if anyone should trust the PPP/C it is Mr. Granger. Despite his vindictiveness in taking action to remove access to medical care for former presidents, he was fully supported by the PPP/C government during his difficulties and enjoyed the luxury of having his medical expenses fully covered by the State. To date, Mr. Granger maintains use of the most expensive vehicle purchased in Guyana’s history for a public official because of the PPP/C Administration, which refused to lower itself to the levels of his APNU+AFC Coalition administration and graciously allowed him to do so.”

The PPP stressed that Granger is correct in one respect “…that local represen- tation is based on trust and the PPP/C stands confident that all right-minded Guyanese trust that: the PPP/C is the only party they can trust to deliver on their promises; the PPP/C is the only party that has matched its words to its actions; the PPP/C is the only party that has worked, and continues to work, assiduously to bring our people together, and further the advancement of our nation for our collective progress and prosperity.”

The Party underscored the fact that the only thing

Guyanese can “trust the APNU” to do is to: look out for their own elitist interests. Granger’s comments were intended as a last-ditch effort to ramp up support for the APNU among Guyanese at Local Government Elections.
