The People’s National Congress Reform spread Christmas cheer to scores of children on Sunday in Linden. Children from two communities – One-Mile Wismar and Amelia’s ward – took advantage of a few hours of sunshine to converge in open areas where they were presented with toys and other gifts.
PNCR leader, Brigadier Ret. David Granger, accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Sandra Granger and Members of Parliament, Ms. Amna Ally and Ms. Vanessa Kissoon, were assisted by Regional Chairman, Mr. Sharma Soloman; former Regional Chairman, Mr. Mortimer Mingo and regional councilors, in feting the children. Brigadier Granger, in extending greetings to the children and their parents, thanked the Regional administration for organising and planning the event and for its contribution to the well-being of residents of the region.
Brigadier David Granger had earlier presented cash to victims and relatives of persons who were injured by the security forces during the crisis in July-August. The money represented contributions by Guyanese in the Diaspora, especially members of ‘Guyvoice’ – a New-York based NGO.
