Jagdeo Vows Tough Stance Against Political Challengers Ahead of Elections

News Source Guyana- With General and Regional Elections approaching, Vice President and General Secretary of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Bharrat Jagdeo, has pledged to adopt a rigorous approach towards any political challengers. During a press conference today, he emphasized that individuals with political ambitions will face intense scrutiny upon declaring their candidacy.

Mr. Jagdeo made it clear that the PPP will not shy away from addressing criticisms and challenges from opponents. He stated, “This is a free country and anyone can contest the elections. However, once you declare—similar to the scrutiny we face daily—candidates must be prepared to answer tough questions.”

His comments came in response to inquiries about businessman Azruddin Mohamed, who recently delivered a New Year’s address on social media, prompting speculation about his potential political aspirations. Jagdeo noted that scrutiny is a natural part of the political process, urging prospective candidates to be ready for the same level of examination faced by current officeholders.

Mr. Mohamed, along with his father and their companies, faced sanctions from the US Government last year due to allegations of tax evasion and gold smuggling, which they have denied. Jagdeo reiterated that while anyone has the right to pursue political office, they must also withstand the same rigorous questioning and public scrutiny that elected officials endure.

President Irfaan Ali has previously stated that Guyana is awaiting guidance from US authorities regarding the sanctions before taking any local action against the Mohamed family.
