In a powerful display of political strength, the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) in Guyana initiated its 2025 re-election campaign with an electrifying rally at Kitty Market Square in Georgetown on July 13, 2025, drawing over 30,000 enthusiastic supporters. The vibrant crowd transformed the city center into a sea of red, signaling the party’s aspirations for another substantial victory.
The event, which overflowed from the market into adjacent streets, was filled with music, passionate chants like “five more years,” and a sea of party flags waving under the afternoon sun. This launch signifies the beginning of what is anticipated to be a highly competitive election season in the country.
PPP General Secretary Bharrat Jagdeo, during his address, contrasted the large turnout with the relatively small audiences at recent events held by the opposition leaders, asserting, “if they had a wave, this is a tsunami.” Jagdeo, a seasoned political figure, criticized the past government’s financial management, stating that they mishandled over $400 billion in public funds.
He emphasized the importance of direct voter engagement, remarking, “The internet does not vote, people do,” urging supporters to participate actively in the electoral process. Jagdeo outlined the party’s achievements, including job creation, infrastructure enhancement, and improved healthcare, reinforcing the narrative of progress.
With a call for unity and action, he encouraged party members to spread across Guyana to galvanize support in the coming weeks, setting an ambitious tone as the PPP/C braces for a crucial election ahead.
