–to campaign for his re-election to office
IN a move that has stirred national attention, former APNU+AFC Member of Parliament, Jermaine Figueira, has declared his full support for President Irfaan Ali, highlighting leadership, performance, and vision as key reasons behind his endorsement.
Figueira, who once served on the opposition benches, described the upcoming September 1 elections as “a consequential one” and emphasised that the choice before voters should transcend party loyalty or personal bias.
“Guyana is at a place where significant transformation is happening, whether you want to accept it or not, the facts are there for all to see,” he asserted during an interview on the Starting Point podcast.
“Out there, you can see the transformation,” the former People’s National Congress heavyweight contended.
Figueira admitted that President Ali has his flaws but emphasised that the head of state is serious about uniting the country and acting in the best interest of its citizens.
“There’s no leader in this country who hasn’t erred and President Irfaan Ali is no exception, but I believe that his leadership far outweighs his imperfections.”
