Africo Selman addresses the crowd at Kitty Market Square

“NEVER allow yourself to be deceived by the APNU +AFC, stay far away,” was the warning given by Africo Selman as she spoke at the People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) Rally at the Kitty Market Square last evening.Speaking to the large crowd that gathered in support of the PPP/C, she recalled the abuse she faced at the hands of members of A Partnership for National Unity (APNU).

She emphasized that the PPP/C has a place for everyone and expressed her sincerest gratitude to the members of the ruling Party. “I wish to express my sincerest gratitude to the PPP/C for accepting me, with his Excellency Donald Ramotar and Elisabeth Harper we will win the upcoming May 11 elections.”
“This party is for unity, not for racial division, this party if for progress and this is the party you should all vote for,” she stressed. She continued to express her dissatisfaction with her treatment from the APNU and urged the youths to get themselves educated about what the PPP/C has to offer and has been doing for the development of the country.
She elaborated on achievements in the education sector, noting that it is free of cost and is of the highest quality. She reiterated the achievement of universal primary education.
She took some time to explain further the achievements of the PPP/C government – “this party has improved life for all Guyana, let us applaud the works and developments of the Donald Ramotar Administration where priority is given to empowering women and young people, developments in the health and housing sector and Amerindian developments.”
Selman noted the distasteful comment by the members of the APNU when she questioned them why not assist in the recent issues the University of Guyana was experiencing and their words to her was “they are collateral damage.”
The coalition, she noted, claimed to be democratic but “they are not – the PPP/C has shown their democracy and the APNU doesn’t value your contributions; I believe if I didn’t leave when I did I might have been physically abused.”
“I do not enjoy recounting those incidents but I advise you, my fellow Guyanese, do not allow yourselves to be deceived by the APNU+AFC, stay as far away as possible”, she noted. “We in the PPP/C are a competent and independent party, we will not be abused or ill-treated by anyone that is handpicked by David Granger,” Selman stressed.
“My friends don’t be fooled; look at what the PPP/C and the PPP/C Government has done for you, come May 11 – let’s go out early and vote PPP/C”, she urged those gathered at Kitty Market Square.
