PNC led APNU refuses to sign Code of Conduct for political parties

THE opposition ‘A Partnership for National Unity’ (APNU) yesterday announced that its officials do not intend to sign the Code of Conduct for political parties prepared by the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM).
The refusal is in view of its ‘deficiency’ and what APNU calls “central issues” and “abuses” that the Code “fails to address”.
The announcement, at a press conference at its Regent Street, Georgetown office, was made by APNU’s executive member Dr. Rupert Roopnarine, who said the document “ignores two vital areas in electoral conduct.”
