It is evident that the PPP-C has a surge of support on the streets and in social media. Three things account for this.
First, and foremost, the PPP-C is a people-oriented party, something most evident in the thousands of activists it has on the streets. These are mostly committed younger Guyanese, unlike the APNU which is made up of ‘geriatrics’, or the WIN which is made up of ‘flatulent stragglers’ in the likes of Fatta and Doggy.
Secondly, unlike the APNU, AFC, and WIN, the PPP-C has leadership of exceptional, world-class quality. Irfaan Ali, Mark Phillips, and Bharrat Jagdeo, have more executive leadership than all the other parties combined. Norton has never held an executive office; Azruddin is mostly known for his OFAC sanctions for gold smuggling and other infractions; Nigel Hughes is a low-energy candidate. Oh, and Amanza thinks she is still lawyering the 2020 elections. On leadership, the PPPC is light-years ahead.
Finally, the PPP-C is known for keeping election promises. The evidence is clear in education, healthcare, job creation, social welfare, national security, and the macro-economic management fiscal and monetary policies. By contrast, the APNU broke every election promise it made in its last term in office. It had a helping hand in the sanctimonious AFC which lay prostrate while the APNU ran amok. WIN has no record of any kind.
The PPPC is well-ahead because of its people-oriented policies, the quality of its leadership, and the fact that it delivers on all election promises. These factors clearly explain the rising momentum of the PPPC.
