Parties commence talks for Shuman’s replacement 

Lenox Shuman

Parties that make up the joinder list have commenced consultations for the replacement of Liberty and Justice Party (LJP) member Lenox Shuman, who has tendered his resignation as a Member of Parliament. Shuman, whose resignation takes effect from March 31, 2023, was also deputy speaker of the National Assembly.

Along with the LJP,  A New and United Guyana (ANUG), and The New Movement (TNM) are the parties on that list.

Kian Jabour, an executive member of ANUG, confirmed last week that consultations and discuss-ion were underway and that Shuman’s successor would be announced shortly. He explained that they were following the necessary protocols set out by Parliament and the Guyana Elections Com-mission (GECOM).
