No-confidence vote outcome must not further divide nation

The Guyana Trades Union Congress last night said that the motion of no-confidence passed against the government is evidence that democracy is at work and while the decision would not be favourable to all it is lawful and binding.

“The GTUC expects that the AFC Member, Charrandas Persaud, who voted for the government’s life to come to end will share with his constituency, the Coalition, as well as the nation the rationale for his decision-making.

No longer should the public be made to accept, as norm, public officials making critical decisions without providing justification. The Coalition, but most specifically the AFC, needs to explain to the nation.
