New faces in Parliament

Sydney Allicock

Sydney Allicock – APNU

This is the twelfth in our series on new parliamentarians

A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) parliamentarian Sydney Allicock believes that the new dispensation in the National Assembly creates an avenue for politicians to “attack the issues rather than personalities and try to bring back that good name that Guyana really deserves.”

Allicock is not new to politics; he was associated with the PNC since he was a youth, but he said he was not to keen on joining a political outfit as he would have preferred to be in a “pressure group”. Nevertheless, he was encouraged by the vision of APNU and the fact that it is made up of ten groups which “makes sense,” he said.

Allicock wants the country’s education system to be improved
