Dear Editor,
Quite recently, the AFC has been in the news about their departure from the APNU, as well as not taking part in the Local Government Elections (LGE). The thing about it is that the AFC started off its tenure as a viable third force and because of its greed for power, went to bed with the APNU (combination of many parties where the majority is the PNC).
Firstly, it is quite sad to see that a party who wanted to remain steadfast behind the APNU during the partial political catastrophe, which almost destroyed our democracy in Guyana, would not be contesting the LGE, especially when they have mouthpieces in various regions, who seem to have the answers for every little issue. Why are the Leaders choosing to not partake? Yet for all they will take to social media and bash the current PPP/C administration.
Secondly, why only now the AFC is deciding to leave the APNU? Is it because their voices aren’t being heard? Are they running out of excuses? Are they tired of the racial rhetoric being spread by their counterpart or should I say past counterpart? These are the things that the AFC must answer to their supporters. In fact, the AFC should stop being a political party altogether, as they have not once made any viable contribution to this nation! It is impossible for people to trust such a party who wanted to support the stifling of democracy!
Sincerely,
Tanya Mohabir
