The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) says it is “extremely happy” with yesterday’s decision of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to direct the Chief Election Officer to prepare a report, using the recount results, in keeping with Section 96 of the Representation of the Act, Chapter 1:03.
This the party said in a press release paves the way for the official declaration of Election Results and the swearing-in of Dr. Irfaan Ali as the ninth Executive President of Guyana.
It added that yesterday’s decision is in line with earlier expressed views that GECOM is not a court of law and therefore has no jurisdiction to hear allegations of irregularities.
