Jagdeo names six for President to pick new Gecom head

Leader of the Opposition Bharrat Jagdeo today submitted a list of six names to President David Granger from which he would hopefully choose the chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission.

Those names are: Christopher Ram, Ramesh Dookhoo, Ryhaan Shah, Professor James Rose, Lawrence Lachmansingh and Norman Mc Lean.

The names, Jagdeo said at a press briefing, were selected following extensive consultations with 30 civil society organizations, representing major sections of society.

These include religious organisations from the three major religions, the private sector and the labour movement.
