See below the full statement issued by President Dr. Irfaan Ali:
I have noted a post by Terrence Campbell in which he claimed that I approached him to be my Prime Ministerial candidate for the 2020 General and Regional Elections. This is completely false. I never approached Terrence Campbell to be a Prime Ministerial candidate for me or the People’s Progressive Party/Civic.
While we have had many discussions on political matters in the past. During our time in opposition, I stated to him and others that the PPP/C is the only national party and that our policies are pro-people and pro-Guyana. At no time did I make an offer for him to be a Prime Ministerial candidate.
The Vice President and General Secretary does not attack anyone; he responds factually and politically to statements and issues. It seems that there is a belief among some in the country that they can attack the PPP and its leadership without expecting a response.
