The state is seeking to overturn the Court of Appeal’s decision which held that an Act passed by the government to amended Article 90 of the Constitution by introducing new criteria for eligibility to run for the office of President of the Republic indirectly breached Articles 1 and 9 of the Constitution. Those articles give the electorate of Guyana the right to elect a President of their choice.
