‘The PPP/C is the only party that makes sense’ – Dr Kofi Dalrymple

Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Technology at the University of Guyana, Dr Kofi Dalrymple, took the stage of the PPP/C rally at Stewartville, West Coast Demerara, on Sunday, urging residents to return President Dr Irfaan Ali to power.

A son of the West Coast of Demerara, Dr Dalrymple, urged Guyanese not to put their future at risk and to vote at the September 1, general and regional elections for the only party that “makes sense.”

“I do not have to tell you who to vote for because you already know who you must vote for. You already know that the PPP/C is the only party that makes any sense in these elections.”

Speaking to a massive crowd, Dr Dalrymple reminded residents of the transformation taking place across the country under Ali’s leadership.

“I do not have to tell you to support your President because you already know that it is under his leadership that Guyana has seen transformation like never before.

“I don’t have to tell you that we will not risk going backwards because you already know what it is to live under high taxes, you already know what it is to have your cash grants taken away from your children.”

Dr Dalrymple, who said he was born at the Leonora Cottage Hospital, told the mammoth crowd that it he “grew up on these very streets of Stewartville.

“It was you who kept me. It was my community that looked out for me. I am not a stranger to you. It was you who pushed me to do my best. It was you who told me that I must go to the university and study. It was my community who supported me when I wanted to get my master’s degree.”

He added, “Dr Ali and I and everyone from Region 3 that sits on this stage is proof that when children from communities like these are given a chance to succeed, that they can rise to the highest levels in Guyana and across the world.”

He said it is now the mission of the PPP/C “to ensure that every child in Guyana gets the same opportunity to succeed. It is now our mission to ensure every child is given what they need to lead, to rise up and to lead the future of Guyans and that is why I support the People’s Progressive Party.”
