The will of the people liveth

Oct 07, 2025 Letters

Dear Editor,

33 years ago, violence engulfed the streets of Georgetown to derail the democratic gears in motion, after 28 years of undemocratic PNC rule.

The organised violence and inflammatory state media coverage ultimately failed to stop Guyana’s first free-and-fair election since 1964.

But politics is cyclical in Guyana. The 2020 elections saw attempts by the Granger-led Government to barefacedly rig the elections and undermine the will of the people once more.

Anyone genuinely concerned about free speech, victimisation and upholding Cheddi Jagan’s legacy would’ve been defined by their voices in 2020. The rigging attempt failed – and today those involved sit on the Executives of the PNC, AFC, WPA, WIN and FGM.

Similarly, in 2025, there was a coordinated misinformation campaign intended to derail the elections. This was led by elements in APNU, WIN and FGM and failed once more.

“The struggle will be long and hard. Sacrifices, there will be many. But time and history are on our side and win we shall. We have been vindicated and the results of the October 5th elections prove that victory was inevitable.”

Democracy liveth.

Cheddi Jagan’s legacy liveth.

The People of Guyana liveth.

Yours faithfully,

Nikhil Sankar
