AFC says President Ramotar is totally out of line

 

Georgetown : The Alliance For Change (AFC) says the recent comments by President Donald Ramotar accusing the AFC and APNU of rigging the 2011 Elections and campaigning along racial lines is disgusting. According to the party, this is totally unbecoming of the President and is designed to destabilise the political dispensation that the electorate voted for. It is a slap in the face for all those who took the time to go out and vote on Polling Day 2011.

The AFC considers it totally silly that President Ramotar would point to racial campaigning during the elections.

The AFC feels that the President Ramotar does not intend to honour the will of the people as demonstrated by their votes at the last elections. The PPP/C excesses of the past and rampant abuse of power make it difficult for them to relax their stranglehold on power. They clearly fear the effectiveness of this new political dispensation and see themselves being forced to answer to the people and confirm with the Constitution of Guyana. This is alien to the PPP/C.

The AFC calls on President Ramotar to apologise to the electorate and fully retract his statement.
