THE Guyana Development Group (GDG), based in Toronto Canada, last Friday showed its solidarity for the David Granger-led administration in Guyana with a picketing exercise in the vicinity of the Guyana Consulate, Consumers Road, Scarborough.

According to spokesperson of the GDG, Quason Parris, the main focus of the exercise was to show support for the government in view of the upcoming general elections. Parris pointed out that the APNU+AFC government “has been the best we have had in a very long time and deserved a second term.”

Some of the placards read: PPP are afraid of youth votes; GECOM – house-to-house registration is a must; Guyana moves forward in harmony; love and unity, peace and harmony and time to move forward in harmony. The GDG also took the opportunity to hand over a plaque to Guyana’s Consul General to Toronto, Anyin Choo, to be presented to President Granger, praising him for his leadership quality since taking over the reins of government.

In accepting the plaque, Consul General Choo thanked the group for the kind gesture while promising to ensure the president receives the gift.
