GENERAL Secretary and Presidential Candidate, Mr. Donald Ramotar, has told Essequibians that the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) has a proud record on which to  stand. Addressing hundreds at one of the community meetings along the Essequibo Coast on Monday, he said the development of the country, under the ruling PPP/C Government, shows good governance.
According to Ramotar, the future of Guyana is even brighter because the foundation to move the country at a faster rate, in terms of development, is already laid.
The Presidential Advisor said hydro-electric power will move the country forward and open the way for Guyanese to get involved in processing.
He also assured Essequibians that the Government is putting Guyanese on the cutting edge of technology and is making investments to ensure that every one of them has access to information technology (IT).
Ramotar, however, warned people not to allow the country to go backwards and ensure that development continues under the PPP/C within another five years.
He lashed out at the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR), stating that it is now disguised as APNU (A Partnership for National Unity), but accused that party of destroying the country and rigging elections during its 28 years in office.
Ramotar alleged that the PNCR destroyed the country and suffered Guyanese but does not want its dirty history to be exposed.
He said the PPP/C Government has repaired and developed the country and there is a bright future for all Guyanese.
At the community meetings, Essequibians appeared joyful as they interacted with Ramotar, President Bharrat Jagdeo and government ministers and PPP officials said the big turnout in each community has shown the tremendous support the party has on the Essequibo Coast.
