Battle for control of public service credit union intensifies

Guyana Public Service Co-operative Credit Union

After seeking to remove its chairman Trevor Benn, the management committee of the public service credit union itself came under pressure on Saturday when the required number of members moved for the removal of the entire body and the announcement of new elections within 14 days.

The statutory meeting of the Guyana Public Service Co-operative Credit Union (GPSCCU) ended after members of the Management Committee then signalled their intention to lay an unknown motion after members – clearly in support of Benn – sought their removal.

On emerging from the meeting, the Management Committee’s members were greeted by angry credit union members who questioned their No-Confidence Motion against Benn and were vocal that they no longer want the Management Committee managing their affairs.
