Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) Aubrey Norton has accused the government of stymieing the expansion of the economy through the discrimination of private investors.

Norton made the accusation during his Republic Day address on Wednesday.

“We are aware that many local investors have been frustrated and in some cases being prevented from making investments that can create jobs and help grow this economy without depending on oil and gas. This short-sightedness and growing practice of economic discrimination must be condemned and stopped. It affects our ability to build a better, stronger, and more prosperous Guyana for all Guyanese,” he declared.
