Guyana needs consensus politics

Dear Editor,

I am all for consensus politics and a national unity government.

The APNU+AFC call to the PPP/C for a national unity government is a realization that they do not have all the solutions to Guyana’s problems. Such an acceptance is conducive to creating mutual understanding, trust and respect which is what consensus politics is about.

The PPP/C and the APNU+AFC need to acknowledge that they alone do not independently have the solutions to Guyana’s problems. Hence, the APNU+AFC needs strategic support and guidance from the PPP/C, and the PPP/C needs strategic support and guidance from the APNU+AFC.

Some people are too wrapped up in their personal hatred to see the necessity of consensus politics whereby we work together to channel our energies towards moving Guyana forward.

Yours faithfully,
Sean Ori
