THE country’s first-ever dancing robot promises to be another highlight of Saturday’s much anticipated concert, which features mega superstars Machel Montano, Sean Paul and Shenseea, and several others.

As a Cricket Carnival sponsor, GTT decided to do something different in its bid to entertain its customers and make a unique contribution to the ongoing celebrations.

The dancing robot will be a marvel to behold; eye-catching and fully entertaining, wining and gyrating to Caribbean vibes like a real person would.

At the Guyana National Stadium located at Providence, East Bank Demerara, persons will be able to take photographs with the robot.

“We know Guyanese. Two things Guyanese like – they like to party and they like cricket. So, we are ensuring that our customers get to celebrate and enjoy the vibes,” Public Relations Officer at GTT Jasmin Harris told Buzz this week.

Asked where the idea of the dancing robot came from, and how entertaining she thought it would be, she joked: “This robot could wine. You think you could wine better than that robot? Girl I can’t wine better than that robot at all.”

Harris said the telecommunications company likes to be the first to do things.

“Our economy is booming and we like to be the first in the things that we do and this is another first for Guyana. Nobody has ever brought a dancing robot into the country, so I think it’s pretty cool.”

The riveting concert is part of a host of events for Cricket Carnival and forms part of the government’s “One Guyana” goal to unite people.

The Soca, Reggae and Dancehall stars will be joined by Guyana’s talented Adrian Dutchin and Nekeita, among other local artistes. (Telesha Ramnarine)
