The leadership team for A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) will include candidates for prime minister, deputy prime minister and vice presidents and WPA co-leader Dr Rupert Roopnaraine is set to be one of the vice presidents, a reliable source has confirmed.

Although discussions on the leadership team are still ongoing, the source said that “Roopnaraine will be a vice president”. The source explained that this position will not prevent Roopnaraine from being considered for the post of prime ministerial candidate. The question as to who will be APNU’s prime ministerial candidate continues to be a point of much debate
