The Working People’s Alliance (WPA) has added its voice to the opposition against the recently announced International Republican Institute (IRI)-led electoral reform project in Guyana, calling it “an affront” to the sovereignty of the country and the dignity of the people.
“Six decades after independence, Guyanese should not outsource important projects such as electoral reform to external forces. Because the electoral architecture is one of the core areas of contention in our fractured society, it is imperative that any reform be driven by consensus among the contending partisan forces,” the WPA said in a statement on Saturday.
