OP says efforts being made to authenticate integrity of recording – purported to be an engagement between President Ramotar and a hinterland resident three weeks ago

THE Press and Publicity Unit of Office of the President said it has noted sections of the media reporting on what is purported to be a recording of an engagement between President Donald Ramotar and a hinterland resident three weeks ago. 

Head of the Press & Publicity Unit, Mr. Kwame McCoy, said efforts are being made to authenticate the integrity of this recording.
In the meantime, the specific incident being referred to involves the hinterland resident who attempted to disrupt the President’s public meeting using invectives, insulting and disparaging language towards Former President Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo.
“The tenor of the engagement represents the cut and trust of public meetings,” McCoy said in the OP statement.
“The highlighting of this incident some three weeks after it is alleged to have taken place smacks of desperation on the part of the political opposition and its media outfits, and is no doubt an attempt to remain relevant particularly since Guyanese recently rejected the Opposition’s calls to disrupt the Christmas season,” McCoy said.
As the New Year beckons, particularly with General elections pending, McCoy said “we can expect many more such attempts at sensational reporting”.
