Yet another meeting of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) was aborted on Tuesday after the two opposition-nominated commissioners present, Robeson Benn and Sase Gunraj walked out.
In a press statement following the walkout the two men claimed that GECOM Chairman James Patterson refused to allow discussion to move on to the agenda item “Commissioners Comments.”
Patterson according to the release attempted to continue discussion on the agenda item “Elections”. It was this item, the seventh on a recycled list which continues to cause dissent at the commission.
