Reply to "“They’re not getting rid of me just like that” – Jagdeo declares"

Jagdeo responded, “As we approach elections, the General Secretary’s role is enhanced. After we win, the role of the Presidential Candidate becomes more prominent. The General Secretary traditionally is the person who has to organize with the ExCo (Executive Committee) of the Party, the list of candidates, campaign funds and the campaign strategy. I will not abrogate those responsibilities.”

Jagdeo is saying here that he is the boss of the party regardless who is the presidential candidate.  I get the feeling he does not want to relinquish power even though he cannot constitutionally run for the job of president nor PM.  This position that he has taken could cause the party the elections in 2020 and beyond if he continues to be there.
