APNU still in disarray over Opposition Leader

Aubrey Norton

PNCR Leader Aubrey Norton has been chosen to fill one of the two vacant seats on the opposition’s side of the National Assembly but the sloth of the process in them officially being sworn in is concerning and an embarrassment, AFC Leader Khemraj Ramjattan says.

“I know that Mr Norton has been named as one, but the other person… has to be named by the executive of the APNU. I am very very concerned because you don’t want to see your opposition without two sitting members for any lengthy period and especially without an Opposi-tion Leader. It must come from the APNU component. It is somewhat embarrassing at this stage,” Ramjattan last evening told the Stabroek News.

“It should be filled as quickly as possible,” he added.
