Among other things, the Party is calling for Chairman, Dr Steve Surujbally to abdicate his office as the head of GECOM, throwing allegations of rigging the May 11 elections at his feet.
While Dr Surujbally has made it clear he will depart on his own terms, the protest from the PPP has continued. General Secretary Clement Rohee on the protest lines told reporters that the protests will be held from time to time.
“We will continue until our demands are met…this is in keeping with a declared policy by the People’s Progressive Party and we will continue to mount the pressure on Surujbally and GECOM,” said Rohee.
According to the General Secretary, the Party does not have an ad-hominen issue with Dr Surujbally, however there is still the concern over the allegations of rigged elections.

Meanwhile, recent reports have surfaced that there might be some friction between Rohee and Opposition Leader, Bharrat Jagdeo with the possibility of the General Secretary being asked to leave.
Rohee was questioned by iNews on this issue to which he feigned ignorance of the matter.
“No, I don’t anything about that…I don’t know anything about that, I don’t know anything about that,” said Rohee.
Asked specifically whether he has any issues with Jagdeo, Rohee gave the same response.
“I don’t know anything on that, I don’t know where that is coming from,” he stated.

Gloriay no political party is entitled to life long governance however with the May 11th elections (National & Regional) there are clear indication that it was rigged to suite this Colation win. In Region 2 the Colation won by 1 vote. There were thousands of spoiled votes in Region 2 hence the PPP/C was denied a recount. This is unheard of in any Democratic country. Why did Surujbally denied this recount???? If the Colation had no fear of supporting a recount hence the outcome then PPP/C Supporters would have no issues with Granger and his team governing this country. Since the PPP/C was denied a recount this Colation is seen as a Defacto Government.
How ironic. The PPPC governed for 23 years and no one protested. Why do they not believe that the voters were disenchanted with them and honestly threw them out of office? Guess that they are of the opinion that they are entitled to life long governance, and that no other party but the PPPC is capable of governing. Such arrogance is reckless and presumptuous.
I totally agree with you.
“Steve must leave”; Rohee ignorant of own departure
“We will continue until our demands are met…
Rohee you must always remember your party is PPP and not PNC.
When PNC say who must go they go. PNC has different groups of people.
PNC has the pasapasa dancers who who does dance away certain PPP minister.
PNC have their voodoo women arm who doe wok obea pon PPP people like how they wok pon Janet Jagan.
PNC got prayer people who does pray away people like how they pray away Gocool Budhoo.
PPP yall ent gat dat so forget it.
That will be a blessed day for Guyana when “middle finger” Rohee gets fired from the PPP. The next two that should leave are Jagdeo and Irfaan Ali.
If that happens, the PPP will definitely win the next General Elections.
