While Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo has said that stakeholders had an arduous task in finding nominees for the position of a Chairman for the Guyana Election Commission (Gecom), President David Granger says he remains optimistic that one will soon be found.
If not, he said, he was open to further discussions with Jagdeo.
“I am sure if they search they will find people with impartiality, there are lots of them around,” Granger said yesterday when told what the opposition had said.
He added, “I am sure Mr Jagdeo will be able to find somebody and if he doesn’t we can discuss it. I am interested in having a chairman as quickly as possible so I look forward to meeting him to learn from him who his nominees are and even if there is a problem we can discuss it further.”
