Parties that make up the joinder list have commenced consultations for the replacement of Liberty and Justice Party (LJP) member Lenox Shuman, who has tendered his resignation as a Member of Parliament. Shuman, whose resignation takes effect from March 31, 2023, was also deputy speaker of the National Assembly.
Along with the LJP, A New and United Guyana (ANUG), and The New Movement (TNM) are the parties on that list.
Kian Jabour, an executive member of ANUG, confirmed last week that consultations and discuss-ion were underway and that Shuman’s successor would be announced shortly. He explained that they were following the necessary protocols set out by Parliament and the Guyana Elections Com-mission (GECOM).
