This is the time for all stakeholders to demonstrate commitment to democratic principles, processes and institutions and not lose sight of the fact that legitimate elections represent the voice and will of the people.

Today is a very important day in the history of post-Independence Guyana. Citizens will take to the various polling stations throughout the country to cast their ballots for the political parties of their choice which they believe are best suited to manage on their behalf the affairs of the State. This is especially so, considering that Guyana is now an oil-producing nation with the promise of hope that oil revenues, if managed well and prudently in the best interest of all of its peoples, will bring about significant benefits to and improvements in their lives.
