APNU, AFC say ready for snap elections

The two parliamentary opposition parties today said they are prepared for early general and regional elections, amid concerns in some quarters that government is becoming increasingly frustrated at APNU and AFC’s exercising control in the National Assembly.

The opposition has cut more than $2 billion from the National Budget, much to the consternation of the government. Among the entities affected by the opposition’s “scissors” are the National Communications Network (NCN), the Guyana Power and Light Company, the Government Information Agency (GINA) and the Guyana Elections Commission (Gecom).
