With the deadline for the submission of presidential candidates and their executive lists expiring at midnight last night, the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) General Secretary Ian Alves remained tight-lipped as to whether incumbent Wayne Forde or any other persons submitted their respective slates.
Thus far, the only publicly known candidate that has submitted their list is former GFF President Franklyn Wilson, who presented his list of candidates to the federation on Wednesday. The electoral congress is scheduled for December 9th at the GFF National Training Centre in Providence.
When this publication contacted Alves to ascertain if any other slates had been submitted, he declared that the submission of candidates’ lists is handled by the Electoral Committee before saying that he was in a meeting and would return a call. This is despite Alves signing upon receipt of Wilson’s list on Wednesday, which was confirmed by a source close to the federation.
