WPA says Roopnaraine unilaterally recalled resignation, supports decision

The Working People’s Alliance (WPA) says that its representative in government, Dr. Rupert Roopnaraine unilaterally made the decision to rescind his resignation after speaking with President David Granger and it is one the party supports.

Further, the party underscored that it trusts Roopnaraine’s judgement of his own health and capabilities and unlike their laid back attitude when he was Minister of Education, they will now take an active role in supporting him as he executes his new job.

“Dr. Roopnaraine remains our representative in Parliament. We know that his health is not good and we defer to his judgement on his health,” Party Executive, David Hinds, told a press conference yesterday at Rodney House.
