Ramjattan's insistence that Nagamootoo becomes House Speaker stalling Opposition negotitations

Liveinguyana was made to understand that talks between the opposition Alliance For Change (AFC) and A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) for the two parties to come to a consensus on a possible Speaker of the National Assembly have been dogged by the insistence of the AFC's Chairman, Khemraj Ramjattan, that Moses Nagamootoo is the only suitable choice for that position.

Ramjattan told a undercover Liveinguyana operative during the Christmas weekend that his party is maintaining the position with Nagamoooto and that’s that. He further said that in his opinion Nagamootoo is the best person and that such a position should be held by an AFC person.
