Granger denies WPA sidelined

President David Granger on Wednesday denied that the coalition government has sidelined the Working People’s Alliance (WPA) and failed to consult the party prior to the appointment of Dr. Rupert Roopnaraine as the education minister.

The WPA, a member of the APNU+AFC coalition, on Monday complained about the failure of the government to consult it since taking office and expressed the view that the party is being sidelined.
