Geeta Chandon-Edmond, who hails from Albion on the Corentyne, Region Six, took to the stage on Sunday at the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) rally at Albion Estate Road, Berbice, urging supporters to “vote for the cup” on 1 September 2025.
The cup is the symbol of the ruling PPP/C party.
“Don’t gamble your future, don’t gamble the future of your children… vote for the only party that has delivered – vote for the cup,” she told the hundreds gathered at the party’s signature rally in the Region.
Chandon-Edmond, on 2 June 2025, crossed the floor of the National Assembly, where she had sat as a Member of Parliament for the opposition A Partnership for National Unity (APNU), and endorsed President Dr Irfaan Ali for a second term in office.
“I am back at home… I am here with pride,” she noted.

On Sunday, the attorney said, “I have walked the journey, and I have seen both sides, and I can tell you – without fear, without favour, without apology – that the PPP is the only party that will take us forward.”
Chandon-Edmond, who is now a candidate on the PPP’s list for the upcoming elections, stated that it is the only party with the visionary leadership required to take Guyana forward.
“We cannot turn a blind eye to what we are seeing – it is right before you. The transformation is not a promise; it is a reality. It is tangible, and you can feel it,” she added.
The attorney emphasised that never before have there been so many opportunities for young people, noting that the incumbent has not only delivered on its promises but continues to do so – from hospitals to drainage and housing, among others.
“We are building the future of every single one of you,” she said, adding that the PPP/C has brought renewed hope and pride to Guyanese.
She further lauded the President and Dr Bharrat Jagdeo, Vice President, for their bold leadership and vision to move Guyana forward.
