Dozens of People’s Progressive Party (PPP) supporters descended on the Saraswati Vidya Niketan’s secondary school graduation ceremony attended by President David Granger yesterday as the opposition party continued its campaign of protests against the caretaker government.
The opposition supporters believe that Granger should not attend events as president of the country since, they claimed, his government is illegal following the passage of a no-confidence motion in December last year and the absence of general elections within the specified period.
In his address at the graduation ceremony, Granger said that science education is very important to the development of Guyana and handed over a $1 million cheque to assist with the expansion of the Cornelia Ida, West Coast Demerara school’s science programme and the equipping of the science laboratories, which are presently under construction, the Ministry of the Presidency reported.
