With the September 1 general election nearing, the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) took center stage once again with a high-profile campaign event, unveiling its “Era of Wealth Creation” plan. In sharp contrast, opposition parties remain quiet, disorganized, and void of substantive policy.
At a vibrant rally in Alexander Village—and one of the largest PPP/C gatherings this year—General Secretary Bharrat Jagdeo outlined the party’s comprehensive manifesto for the years 2025 to 2030. Key points included:
Economic Revival: Programs aimed at job creation, small business development, and national infrastructure investment.
Social Equity: Strengthening healthcare, education, and rural development for inclusive national growth.
Tech Modernization: Launching digital IDs, AI-supported public services, and e-governance systems to streamline citizen engagement.
Jagdeo emphasized that PPP/C isn’t just campaigning—it’s offering a forward-looking blueprint for national transformation. His message struck a decisive tone: the party is united, proactive, and capable of governance at scale.
While the PPP/C outlines bold steps for Guyana’s future, opposition parties have yet to release comparable plans or policy blueprints. With only weeks remaining before the vote, their absence underscores a leadership vacuum—highlighting not just a lack of vision, but a failure to lead.
Narrative Ownership: PPP/C clearly claims the political space as the party of ideas and action.
Voter Confidence: A structured plan reassures undecided voters seeking direction, not just debate.
Campaign Momentum: Ground rallies backed by policies energize the party and build a tangible advantage.
Opposition Silencing: Without competing proposals, rivals are overshadowed in both visibility and substance.
Sector | PPP/C Advantage | Opposition Shortfall |
---|---|---|
Vision Clarity | Detailed five-year roadmap | No equivalent policy framework |
Campaign Depth | High-energy public events with substance | Messaging remains vague and reactive |
Governance Trust | Projecting professionalism and capability | Seen as fragmented and unprepared |
Electorate Appeal | Targets economic, social, and digital priorities | Lacks integrated voter-focused strategy |
In this critical month before the vote, PPP/C’s manifesto pulls double duty as both campaign pitch and governing platform. It appeals to urban and rural voters, youth, professionals—building a consensus around shared progress.
Opposition parties now face a critical test: rise with purpose and policy or risk electoral irrelevance before they even enter the voting booth.
In fewer than 750 words, PPP/C has demonstrated that it is campaigning with substance and vision. Jagdeo’s rally wasn’t just a spectacle—it was a strategic campaign milestone setting the political pace. Meanwhile, opposition parties continue to stall in the void of vision and voice.
As polling day approaches, it’s evident: PPP/C isn’t just leading—it’s defining Guyana’s future.

PPP/C Unveils Bold Five-Year Vision in Grand Rally—As Opposition Lacks Direction
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
t is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
