Hours after it announced that no decision had been made as it relates to an extension of the ongoing claims period, the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) subsequently said that the process would now be lengthened by seven days.
It noted that the extension is to afford eligible persons further opportunities to participate in the process. In this regard, persons who are desirous of making a claim to be included in the Official List of Electors (OLE) have until Wednesday, 21st September 2022 to do so. Similarly, persons who intend to object to the inclusion of names in the OLE have until Sunday, 25th September to submit their objection(s), a statement from GECOM noted.
