See below the full statement issued by CN Sharma and his wife
WELL-known Guyanese, renowned activist, television talk show host of Voice of the People and political party founder/ leader of the Justice for All Party (JFAP), C.N. Sharma along with his wife Savitree Sharma, have endorsed Irfaan Ali and the PPP/C government for a second term in Government.
In his active years, C.N. Sharma, an outspoken political commentator and activist, heavily criticised the PPP/C government. Now, having taken a step back from the political frontlines and the media limelight, “I see change within the party. Irfaan Ali shows he cares for all the Guyanese people – of all races, equally. Well done Irfaan!”
“I have a genuine concern for the voiceless people of Guyana and I see we have a president who cares about the people. Guyana is progressing with a bright future for all the people of this country.”
The Sharmas’ attention and support toward the PPP/C came in 2020 when their political party JFAP, split away from the then governing party APNU Coalition, after Sharma’s party conceded to the PPP/C in support of the election result and recount agreeing that PPP/C was the declared winner of the 2020 General Election and demanded that Irfaan Ali be sworn in without further delay.
“I was once a loud voice against the government- I have no apologies keeping them in line; but unity and support is necessary for progress to continue for the good of all Guyanese,” Sharma said.
