`It is sad and troubling that the government views differing opinions as destructive and rooted in political bias’
A non-governmental Indigenous Peoples organisation has taken issue with disparaging remarks made against it by Guyana’s Head of State at a meeting in Region Seven and has called for a retraction of the statement
In a release yesterday, the Amerindian Peoples Association (APA) strongly condemned what it termed as” unwarranted attacks” made by President Irfaan Ali against the organisation as reported by the Guyana Chronicle on May 10, and broadcast live on the President’s official social media pages.
The release said that during a meeting in Batavia Village, Region Seven, President Ali labelled the APA as a ‘political operative’ for the opposition, a characterization of the organisation it termed as “false and baseless.”
