Over the past few days, Barbados Prime Minister and Chair of Caricom Mia Mottley accused Keith Lowenfield, our Chief Election Officer, of “gamesmanship.” Having dumped 115,000 votes, the Prime Minister applied the word ‘bizarre” to Guyana’s elections process. Representing Caricom, which has been described by President Granger as the “most legitimate interlocutor,” Prime Minister Mottley characterised the electoral shenanigans as “not our finest hour.” When asked to comment on the criticisms made of her comments, the Prime Minister responded that “the truth hurts.”
