Let's take a look at Jagdeo & the PPP record during their 23 years rule.
- Failed education system and illiteracy was on the rise;
- Broken health care system;
- Highest infant/mother mortality rate in the region;
- Guyana became the poorest country in the hemisphere;
- Guyana was declared the most corrupt country in the region;
- Increased racial divisiveness - state sponsored;
- Broken transportation system;
- Broken electricity system - random and prolonged black outs;
- Broken road works & bridges - crippling the movement of goods and people;
- Broken water and sewage system - no and sometimes unsafe piped water;
- Country was in state of dictatorship with the closure of parliament;
- Press freedoms was rolled back with the media being threatened;
- Extra judicial killings and disappearances had risen;
- State sponsored demoralizing of armed services.
As long as Jagdeo remains the head of the party, the PPP will be out of power.
Mits, and still the PPP was a better government than the hapless Coalition government. Now that you brought these up, it looks like giving that F grade was being too generous to the Coalition.
Sorry, neither are better than the other. Guyana needs new blood. Too much old men trying to fix things and literally fallen asleep. I agree that they are hapless.
The people on EB Berbice voted overwhelmingly for the PPP at every election, yet the PPP failed to fix the roads leading to Mara.
