PPP returning to communities, addressing issues raised during LGE campaign – Jagdeo

Vice-President Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo recently met with residents from Laing Avenue in Georgetown.

“I also met with some Afro-Guyanese farmers from the East bank there at Craig, we also promised the people in Foulis, we did some roads there.

“We are also fulfilling promises we made in Enterprise, we went back there because when we were out campaigning we heard people’s concerns and we want to ensure they benefit,” the PPP GS told a news conference at the party’s headquarters – Freedom House – on Thursday.

Jagdeo believes this direct connection between the government and citizens will greatly change lives for the better.

Roads and sporting facilities are being upgraded and people are receiving direct cash support to start and expand businesses.

Although the PPP/C failed to gain control of Georgetown, Linden and New Amsterdam, in the aftermath of the June 12 polls, Jagdeo previously assured that the party will deliver on the promises made during the campaign to these areas.

But he pointed to the pushback the government has received from the PNC –led APNU and other political commentators on this front.
