Leader of the Opposition Bharrat Jagdeo has welcomed a declaration by President David Granger that there would be no disorder or lawlessness during the holding of the March 2, 2020 General and Regional Elections.

 

Speaking at his weekly press briefing yesterday, Jagdeo expressed the hope that having made this declaration, Granger will β€œrein in those people from his party who have been on the campaign trail trying to stir up hatred that could lead to confusion and possible violence on Election Day.”

He singled out PNCR Chair Volda Lawrence as well as Minister of Finance Winston Jordan and Attorney General Basil Williams who told supporters at various meetings that they should stick around after close of poll at 6 pm to protect the ballot box.

The DAG just fooled Bharrat Jagdeo again. Peaceful elections - give me a break. As I have said before BJ opens his mouth too often to accept whatever the DAG feeds him. DAG knows BJs weakness.

Yes, he does.  Granger has not complied with a single commitment since the NCV. He plays Jagdeo like a fiddle.  Let’s see March 2.

Granger cannot assure anything. If elements of the APNU wants to create disturbances, they will. And there's not a damn thing he could about it. If he had that power, he would have already muzzled Volda Lawrence septic tank aka her mouth.

Granger has little control over the PNC. That’s people like Harmon, Volda, etc.

As I had said before, Granger is just the figure head. I strongly believe its those individuals within his circle who are really calling the shots. Just my hunch.

More lies.  If he has balls he would have already condoned Volda’s statement and the actions of some of his supporters who are inciting violence.

Volda is the one with the balls!  Granger is there to play nice guy, the benign grandfather figure.  Their strategy is working so far. Polling is worrying them, as they may need to deploy their doomsday plan.
