BREAKING – Benn leads Yarde in Credit Union Elections

Tallying in the elections of the Guyana Public Service Union Credit Union dozen Management
Committee members have not concluded. However reliable sources have informed
www.aroudtheregions.com that Trevor Benn and his team are ahead on the count. We are
standing by to provide results of the eagerly anticipated elections when it becomes available
GPSU 1 st VP Dawn Gardner disclosed that in 2018, Chief Cooperatives Development Officer
(CCDO) Ms. Paulina Gifth in a letter informed the Credit Union that the entire executive will be
disbanded because of irregularities which to this day were never identified or explained and
replaced by an IMC.
“An IMC was instituted but yet we were never told of the irregularities that the then Minister and
Gifth had spoken about. We are approaching three years now and only now the IMC is holding
its AGM and we are anxiously awaiting it,” Gardner said.
It is the first AGM being held since the i8mpositionof the IMC in 2018
Gardner had sought Labour Minister Joseph Hamilton’s help in removing Benn from the list of
candidates but he
r argued that under current Credit Union regulations, Benn is authorised to preside over today’s
eagerly awaited meeting and the elections since “he is the sitting Chair”.
Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) tried to litigate the matter Friday, but the Judge Fidela
Corbin-Lincoln tossed it aside.
