| The Alliance For Change (AFC) has once again promised the media to resume hosting weeklyAFC General Secretary, David Pattersonpress conferences.On Saturday last,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, at the opening of the Party’s Headquarters, AFC General Secretary, David Patterson told Kaieteur News that there is no specific reason why his party has not been holding press conferences ever since it entered government.He said that the party is very much aware that a press conference is way overdue. “It is just a question of timing now. I am sure we are going to do one soon. I cannot give an excuse for not holding press conferences but the party is doing quite well.Patterson said that he will push to have one before the Budget debates are held.Neither the AFC nor A Partnership For National Unity (APNU) held a single press conference since the formation of the new government.The promise made on Saturday was one made by Patterson some three months ago when Kaieteur News contacted him about the absence of press conferences.Before the pre-election coalition that rendered them successful in the May 11 General and Regional Elections, AFC and APNU held weekly press conferences as independent political parties.It was on February 14, that the two parties for the first time held a joint press conference at the Georgetown Club, to announce the historical coalition that eventually contested the elections that ousted the People’s Progressive Party civic from Government after 22 years.But since the official results were declared and the President was sworn in, both APNU and the AFC appear to have shied away from the scrutiny of the media.It should be noted that after that historical press conference several other press conferences were held both separately and jointly in the run up to the elections.Further, during that time when the elections results were unclear, the parties were having almost just as many press conferences as the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM).On the other hand, the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) holds press conferences on a weekly basis.In the absence of press conferences hosted by the other two main political parties, many questions remain unanswered.It is now a rare occasion when one can get in contact with APNU’s General Secretary Joseph Harmon which is a vast contrast to his pre-election availability to the media. |
