Nigel Hughes says AFC is back, contesting all regions

Presidential Candidate for the Alliance For Change (AFC) Nigel Hughes on Monday said the party will be contesting the general and regional elections in all ten administrative regions.

Hughes made the disclosure as the AFC waited to submit its list of candidates at the Umana Yana in Kingston, Georgetown.

Hughes was asked by reporters to comment on the regions that the AFC will be contesting during the 2025 Regional and General Elections, to which he said, “[we are running] in almost every region, the AFC is back, this is the AFC of 2011.

“We are running alone and we will stand and fall by the results.”

The AFC and APNU’s talks to form a coalition amid the 2025 elections collapsed earlier this year.

Hughes said the AFC’s list of candidates comprises of members who are young and should the party be elected, “50 per cent of my Cabinet will be women, half of the women will be young, and half of the men will be young,” Hughes said.

He further said that it is his hope that the Guyana Elections Commission will be fair in administering the elections.
