The Albion estate road was, on Sunday, blanketed by scenes of fiery red as more than 35,000 Guyanese from all walks of life gathered under the blazing afternoon sun for a singular purpose, answering President Dr. Irfaan Ali’s call for unity, progress and consolidation.

“This is a movement, this power, the people’s power and the embracing of the people’s progressive party’s philosophy,” the President declared, his voice rising above a thunderous crowd that stretched far beyond the community streets.

The rally marked a significant moment in the ongoing mobilisation of the PPP/C’s support base, with President Ali underscoring the importance of sustained governance and strategic investment.

“There is only one party that has demonstrated to you that we have clear plans and big policies for you,” the Head of State declared, as thousands cheered across the  Albion road.

With repeated appeals to maintain logic and legacy, President Ali urged supporters to reject political experimentation and champion the stability of the PPP/C as the foundation for growth.

“Now is not the time to experiment, now is not the time to give somebody the chance, now is the time to consolidate,” he told the enthusiastic gathering.

Emphasising the participatory nature of development, the President reminded citizens of their pivotal role in shaping Guyana’s future. “All of these plans depend heavily on you,” he stressed.

Dr. Ali also formally announced a substantial US$200 million fund to support small and micro businesses, particularly in rural and under-capitalised communities. The fund, he explained, will expand access to capital, unlock entrepreneurship, and ensure that growth is not confined to urban centres.

He further revealed that his government will continue massive investments in infrastructure, including state-of-the-art recreational and sporting facilities across Region Six. These initiatives aim to uplift communities, provide safe and modern public spaces, and enhance the quality of life for families.

In line with a people-first approach, the President also committed to pursuing more family-friendly policies to increase disposable income in Guyanese households, promising relief and support to help families thrive amid the country’s economic rise.
“The future we are building is one in which our people will see prosperity,” Dr. Ali affirmed.
