With no constituency, WPA’S advocacy for power sharing will lead to gridlock in Cabinet

Jun 15, 2022 Letters

Dear Editor
The leadership of the WPA is shameless. According to a Demerara Waves report headlined “WPA ready to form broad anti dictatorial movement to push for power sharing should first put their house in order. This is a mouse which is roaring in Guyana’s politics. Who are what does the WPA represent?
Absolutely nobody or nothing except a few letter writers .They have no broad based membership constituency. They are not even capable of attracting a crowd for a public meeting at Bourda Market.
They want power sharing based on what? What is their political strength to give them equality or proportional representation in a cabinet? Nothing, at least the AFC despite its small size and the perception that they are “dead meat” has the courage to hold a congress and elect their leaders at a democratic forum. Why hasn’t the WPA done similarly? The glaring answer is the WPA is the worst possible alternative as Forbes Burnham so appropriately labeled them.
Power sharing will not work in Guyana. The bickering that goes on in public will be moved to the secrecy of the cabinet which will be gridlocked. The public would not know what is going on because cabinet meetings are secret. Additionally, neither the WPA nor the PNC have the ability to manage money or agriculture. The WPA and PNC will be a humbug. Guyana will be doomed with such a power sharing concoction.
Yours sincerely
Sultan Mohamed
