Chairman of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR), Basil Williams has urged members of the party to be prepared “to put up with the resistance and seek information that will equip them to rebut the lies and fabrications of the opposition.”
Williams, who is also the country’s Attorney General, was at the time addressing the PNCR’s second General Council Meeting for the year, which was held on Saturday at Congress Place, Sophia.
According to a statement from the Party, the Chairman said that the task of members is to stand up and defend the Party, the Government and the Coalition.
“He then proceeded to lists the many achievements of the government over the last three years,” the statement noted.
It was noted that Williams spoke of the 60 years of light that the PNC has provided in this multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, and multi-religious country of Guyana.
“The focus of her Report was mainly on membership, achievements, local government elections, projections and other related Party affairs.”
Meanwhile, the feature address to General Council was delivered by Party Leader and President of Guyana, David Granger, who highlighted the daily challenges faced by the Coalition from some sections of the media.
According to the statement, Mr Granger said that the PNC is the only Party, in and out of season, that has committed itself to coalition.
