The opposition PNCR yesterday said that the government’s plan to make the $100,000 cash grant available to overseas-based Guyanese is rife with opportunities for corruption,
In a press statement, the party said that every time the government speaks about the one-off cash grant, “they manifest their incompetence, lack of a plan and the divisions that exist in the PPP”.
The PNCR said that while it believes that Guyanese from the diaspora who are in Guyana, registered and have a national identification card should be able to access the $100,000 it was deeply concerned about creating another avenue for corruption.
