In his first speech as President of Guyana to honour the legacy of Dr Cheddi Jagan, the founding member of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Irfaan Ali vowed to “wipe out” any weapon of racism formed against the government and its people. In a passionate speech delivered on Sunday at Babu Jaan in Port Mourant, Berbice to hundreds gathered at the memorial site of the Jagans, President Ali spoke about a group of people who he says are “hell bent” on weaponizing Guyana’s greatest asset – the diversity of its people. And he vowed to ensure that this weapon is “buried”.
