Jagdeo urges disclosure of Exxon agreement

Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo on Friday called for the release of the inception agreement between the Guyana government and ExxonMobil, while criticising the David Granger-led administration for politicising the country’s oil prospects and selling unrealistic dreams to its citizenry.

“If you are going to snipe at the PPP, make the entire contract public so that we have a chance, in the public domain, to defend the original contract and the time it was signed too,” Jagdeo told a press conference on Friday.
