As he awaits the approval of the renunciation of his United States Citizenship, Director General of the Ministry of the Presidency Joseph Harmon says that he will be on the APNU+AFC list of candidates for the next election and cannot wait to serve.

“I am excited because I want to continue to serve the people of this country. I believe that there is a certain quality which I have that can help the president in running this country in a proper way, and I believe that I have something to offer the people of Guyana,” Harmon, the former Minister of State, said in Linden on Saturday.

Both the High Court and the Court of Appeal have found that constitutional provisions make those who hold citizenship in another country ineligible for election to the National Assembly.
