It will be some time before a definitive determination can be made regarding the real significance of the leadership change that occurred a matter of days ago inside the People’s National Congress/Reform. (PNC/R) What is not in doubt even at this early stage is that the change will either make or break the political career of the man whom the country’s major opposition party has decided will take over as its leader.
Retired Guyana Defence Force Brigadier David Arthur Granger’s political ascendancy has been swift if not altogether surprising. He may have been a long-standing member of the the PNC/R but up until relatively recently he had not been thought of as a contender for the leadership of the party.
