If the Guyana Elections Commissions (GECOM) suspends the current national house-to-house registration process by the end of this month, the opposition People’s Progressive Party (PPP) believes that there will be enough time to facilitate elections by the end of October.

“I have seen a timeline worked out by our commissioners, which have all of the processes being followed, and puts elections by the latter part of October,” PPP General Secretary and Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo told a press conference yesterday.

“I believe that October is a timeline because the commissioners sat and they worked at this and showed that without compromising any quality we can achieve this by the end of October,” he added.
