AS Guyanese countrywide await the announcement of the elections results, the Voice of Faith Miracle Ministries church on the Essequibo Coast is praying that peace will prevail in the country, and that God will keep watch over Guyana. A release from the church said all Guyanese should be involved in prayers at this time, and respect the results that will be announced by GECOM. The church is praying that Guyanese, especially those in the capital, respect each other, fear God, and live in harmony so God can continue to bless this great land of ours.   The church said prayers will continue for God’s intervention in the affairs of Guyana and for love and peace to prevail over the nation. The church is also calling on all Guyanese to respect the laws of the country, and to see each other with love and brotherhood, and not to let politics divide them. God is the answer to every problem, they say.
Meanwhile on the Essequibo Coast, residents have started to be become a bit restless about the announcement of the election results. Several persons have questioned the sloth of GECOM staff in tabulating the results. They say it’s terribly frustrating, and is causing Essequibians to become unsure about what is happening with the results.
Reports are that many persons are seen discussing the matter of the election results in groups at roadsides, bridges or at liquor shops.
The announcement of the election results has also become a burning issue among housewives, young people, rice farmers, fishermen, teachers, nurses and even the elderly folks. Every person seems to have their own pronouncement on the election results.
The Region continues to enjoy peace, while everything is back to normalcy after the election. (Rajendra Prabhulall)
