Our country has been made to suffer through a more than three months wait for an election result which, in fact, was known the day after the elections were held from the Statements of Poll in the possession of the major contesting parties (including the APNU+AFC), the majority of the International and Local Observers and the international Diplomatic Community, as well as the Chief Election Officer, Keith Lowenfield.

Just two days before the conclusion of the Recount, David Granger, in anticipation of the truth of the Recount result about to be concluded, addressed the nation as both Leader of the APNU+AFC and the de facto President of the country, but, instead of conceding, he chose to discredit the result of the Recount.

This is what the Aide Memoire between David Granger and Bharrat Jagdeo, amongst other things, agreed to:

“That a total recount of all ballots from all electoral districts from Regions 1 to 10 would take place urgently in accordance with the Constitution, the applicable law and the judgement of the Court, issued by Roxane George, Chief Justice (ag) on Wednesday, 11th March, 2020.

Let me repeat that, what David Granger and Bharrat Jagdeo, facilitated by Prime Minister Mia Mottley of Barbados and the Chairman of CARICOM, in the presence of Joseph Harmon and Raphael Trotman, and Ambassador Irwin La Rocque, Secretary General of CARICOM, agreed to is “a total recount of all ballots from all electoral districts in Regions 1 to 10”.

We must now expect that GECOM, under her leadership, will move to declare the result of the Elections in accordance with the tabulated Recount of the ballots, for the swearing in of the Presidential Candidate of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic, Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali.
