Baroness Sugg, Britain’s Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Overseas Territories and Sustainable Development, has joined the call for the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to declare a final result from the March elections on the basis of the recount of votes.
“Guyanese people have waited long enough for election results. Now all legal processes have been completed I urge Guyana Elections Commission to declare a result based on [the] @CARICOMorg scrutinised recount. Every vote must count, all must respect those votes, regardless of the result,” Baroness Sugg wrote in a Tweet yesterday.
Calls have been made by the western missions here, the Organization of American States, the Commonwealth and associated officials from around the world for GECOM to use the recount to declare a winner of the polls.
