Baroness Sugg

Britain’s Parliamentary Under Secretary of State in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Department for International Development today urged GECOM to declare a final result on the basis of the recount of votes.

In a tweet, Baroness Sugg said: “Guyanese people have waited long enough for election results. Now all legal processes have been completed I urge Guyana Elections Commission to declare a result based on @CARICOMorg scrutinised recount. Every vote must count, all must respect those votes, regardless of the result.”
