‘What kind of Maths is that?’

Winston Jordan

Minister of Finance Winston Jordan yesterday accused the opposition PPP/C of falsifying statistics to create confusion about the proposed 2019 national budget.

As he closed the five-day debate on the proposed national budget for 2019, Jordan implored the House to be careful with what is recorded in the Hansard as he charged that sinister moves are afoot.

Jordan doubled down on his previous assertion that the pre-2015 economy was financed by criminality and he declared that Guyana’s economy has been going through some growing pains as it adjusts to depending only on legal sectors.
