GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – Leader of the opposition grouping, a Partnership for National Unity (APNU), retired Brigadier David Granger says the opposition will not support a new security reform programme outlined by Home Affairs Minister Ckement Rohee earlier this week.
“We are committed to supporting security sector reform, yes we will support any reasonable measure that will make the country safer,” Granger told the Guyana website Demerara Waves, adding “as far as Mr. Rohee is concerned the National Assembly has taken a position and we do not believe that based on his performance over the last six years that we have confidence in him to push these reforms”.
The APNU and the Alliance for Change (AFC) control 33 of the 65 seats in the National Assembly and have been calling for the resignation of Rohee. They have also vowed not to cooperate with him.
