—PM Phillips rallies Linden supporters

Prime Minister Mark Phillips has called on residents of Region 10 to support the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C), framing the upcoming elections as a chance for personal upliftment, economic empowerment, and self-development.

“This is time for you to vote for personal upliftment, time for you to vote for economic empowerment, time for you to vote for self-development,” PM Phillips declared as he addressed a mammoth gathering on Sunday evening.

Underscoring the PPP/C’s development track record, the Prime Minister highlighted major investments made in education, infrastructure, and clean energy.

These include billions channelled into the education sector to expand the school feeding programme, the construction of a new $2.66 billion secondary school, and a $27 million contract signed for a large-scale solar farm.

The PPP/C administration, he said, has also mobilised over $160 million for road upgrades in the region and has provided a $100,000 cash grant to citizens—a move he described as part of the government’s commitment to shared prosperity.

“The PPP/C is about growth—your growth, Guyana’s growth,” PM Phillips added, urging voters to back the party’s vision for inclusive national development.

He noted that the PPP/C is looking to secure a landslide victory in the region by acquiring seats in the Regional Democratic Council, which would allow the government to fast-track its economic agenda for the region and its residents.
