APNU+AFC unexcited by announcement of oil find

A Partnership for National Unity+ Alliance for Change (APNU+AFC) Coalition seems un-ecstatic over recent claims that Guyana may have struck oil. The announcement came a day before the Coalition registered its delight that should the country strike the mineral, a responsible and corrupt- free government would be in place to the put the resource to the correct use.

The Coalition told media operatives on Friday May 8 that over the years Guyana has had significant indicators of oil finds. While the party made no mention of the recent announcement being part of a campaign gimmick by the ruling People’s Progressive Party (PPP), they were adamant that any success would not bear fruitful until the next five years.
