The campaign is in full swing for the presidential candidate for the main opposition People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) in Guyana.

Five candidates, including two former ministers of government, are vying for the top post. They are: former finance minister Carl Greenidge; former public service minister Faith Harding; Brigadier David Granger; vice chairman of the party, Basil Williams; and young attorney James Bond.

The current party leader, Robert Corbin, has announced that he is not running for president, but he wants to remain as leader of the PNCR.

The candidates have had town hall meetings trying to woo members of the PNCR to support them. A couple of them have made overseas trips to whip up support.

February 25 is the date scheduled for the election.
