Three Opposition Members of Parliament on Thursday morning staged a  protest in front of the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) head office on Main Street demanding something be done about the continuous blackouts.

APNU+AFC parliamentarians Christopher Jones, Annette Ferguson and Simona Broomes railed at what they said was the “incompetence” of GPL and called for the management team to go.

Jones relayed that he was protesting as a citizen of Guyana and on behalf of all those who have been experiencing difficulty with the constant power outages. Further, he said that GPL is yet to properly compensate for damaged equipment caused by power outages in Guyana.
