The Guyana Press Association (GPA) in a statement to its membership has condemned the recent statements by the Head of State Bharrat Jagdeo at the Private Sector Commission (PSC) dinner on August 28 last.The GPA stated that it “is appalled at Jagdeo’s most recent statements against a section of the private media”.“We would encourage the President to seek wider avenues to express his concerns rather than to keep going down the same narrow one way street over and over again. It is understandable and expected that politicians, more so a sitting government will never see eye to eye with the media.
