Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo yesterday warned that if his party returns to government it will exclude the company which concludes an agreement with the current administration to buy Guyana’s first oil from “any and all open tenders”.
“They are knowingly entering into a contract with a government that has had its power reduced and should not be tying up any arrangements,” Jagdeo said at his weekly press conference at his Church Street, Georgetown office.
According to Jagdeo, the Department of Energy (DE) should allow ExxonMobil to sell Guyana’s first oil cargoes.
