The Alliance for Change (AFC) and Working Peoples Alliance (WPA) say that they are satisfied with the APNU+AFC alliance Lists of Candidates for the May 11 general elections.
“The coalition is made up of six parties. The list as far as we have been able to, should be (representative) of all the parties and we are satisfied that it is representative of all the parties. I don’t want to be discussing individual party criteria,” said Dr Rupert Roopnaraine, the leader of the WPA yesterday. The WPA is a member of the APNU coalition.
Roopnarine and AFC General-Secretary David Patterson, at a press conference yesterday, said that their respective parties submitted names for the list and were not required to justify to the other parties in the coalition the criteria used to select persons. In the same vein, they said, they respect the selection decision of the other parties.
