We must hold our leaders accountable to ensure Guyana’s future is not dictated by “Lagoobagoos”

Jun 20, 2025 Letters

Dear Editor,

Kaieteur News – The political landscape in Guyana is rife with opportunities and challenges as we approach the 2025 Elections. While anyone can claim the title of a presidential candidate, true leadership requires a calculated strategy that resonates with the diverse populace. Aubrey, with his pragmatic approach and dedication to addressing the needs of the underprivileged, has positioned himself as a serious contender, even if he doesn’t fit the typical mold of a charismatic leader. His recognition of the historical significance of representation, particularly with a female Indigenous Prime Minister candidate, outlines a progressive vision for Guyana’s future.

As the campaigns unfold, it will be crucial to monitor the evolving dynamics between candidates like Aubrey and Azruddin, especially as they draw support across ethnic lines. Political maneuvering will undoubtedly influence the outcome, and past experiences will weigh heavily on voters’ minds. The growing dissatisfaction with the current government creates an opportunity for a shift in power, but every candidate must remain alert to the intricacies of ethnic sentiments that have shaped Guyanese politics for decades.

In this critical period, the question remains: who can truly unite the people and offer a vision that transcends historical divides? The upcoming months will reveal that—and more. The call for transparency, accountability, and genuine representation has never been louder, and as the party shenanigans commence, we must hold our leaders accountable to ensure Guyana’s future is not dictated by “Lagoobagoos” but by those who truly understand and embody the aspirations of all Guyanese people.

Yours faithfully,

SHABEER ZAFAR, B.A., LL.B., L.E.C.
