Political party, A New and United Guyana (ANUG) yesterday urged that a shared governance arrangement be entered into by the two main political forces until the next elections and that no contracts be awarded or policy decisions made during that time.
The party also said that Chair-man of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) Justice (Ret’d) James Patterson should step down and President David Granger and Leader of the Opposition Bharrat Jagdeo should work out a mechanism to select a new elections chief.
ANUG statements followed Tuesday’s rulings by the Carib-bean Court of Justice (CCJ) that the December 21st no-confidence motion against the government was valid and Patterson was selected as GECOM’s Chairman in an unconstitutional process. The party also called on both the government and opposition to be mature and put Guyana first.
