In an emphatic message delivered in the National Assembly on Monday night, Opposition Parliamentarian Geeta Chandan-Edmond endorsed President Dr. Irfaan Ali.
Chandan- Edmond declared, “President Ali earned a second term and Guyana deserves nothing less.”
She added, “I stand proudly with President Irfaan Ali, I stand with his leadership, I stand with his vision, and I stand with his steadfast commitment to this country.”
The politician, who has been part of the opposition People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR), said her decision came despite efforts to “silence” her. She also apologised to Guyanese for leaving the House recently alongside her Opposition colleagues when national solidarity was needed to reaffirm Guyana’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Opposition Parliamentarian joins a list of other prominent political players now endorsing President Ali and the PPP. Last week, Liberty and Justice Party Leader, Lenox Shuman; The Citizenship Initiative’s Shazaam Ally; and PNCR’s Daniel Seeram, Samuel Sandy and Dr. Richard Van-West Charles all endorsed President Ali and the PPP.
For Chandan-Edmond, the decision to back President Ali and the People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) ahead of the September 1, 2025, elections was made after much deliberation and due to her love for the country. She also opined that President Ali has led Guyana’s transformation since 2020 and stressed that he should be supported further.
And Chandan-Edmond, who described herself as a child of the sugar plantation, said, “… my conscience spoke louder than any voice.”
