Essequibo
Some residents on the Essequibo Coast were in full celebratory mode yesterday.
This development was one that followed on the heels of the Guyana Elections Commission’s announcement of the preliminary results of Monday’s National and Regional Elections, which suggested a win for the A Partnership for National Unity and Alliance for Change (APNU+AFC) Coalition.
Moreover, the supporters of the Coalition took to the streets yesterday to start an early celebration. They were evidently very jubilant.
In Darthmouth Village for instance, youngsters took to the streets with green flags and some attired in APNU T-shirts as they gyrated to the very popular Edward Neblett ‘Love and Unity’ song.
However, this was not the official celebration as a male member of the group told this publication that celebrations will be amplified on Saturday. This, he disclosed, is expected to see a group of people marching to Anna Regina then back to Darthmouth.
Darthmouth, which could be described as a depressed community, has produced former Prime Minister, Ptolomy Reid and Regional Chairman, Kenneth Hopkinson.
Berbice
While this publication was not able get a glimpse of all of the celebratory action in Berbice, there are reports that residents in some sections of the county were also in early celebration mode. According to Kaieteur News’ Berbice correspondent Samuel Whyte, some residents opted to traverse sections of the county in their vehicles waving flags as part of their celebration.
There were sporadic celebrations with some people even toasting at bars and also at homes, to showcase their appreciation for the preliminary announcement of an APNU+AFC win.
