Daily Brief

Your satirical summary of Guyana’s news — Read all four papers in 5-6 minutes so you don’t have to!


🏛️ OPPOSITION LEADER DRAMA: THE LONGEST ELECTION EVER

The Headlines:

  • APNU says they’ll likely abstain from Opposition Leader vote
  • Mohamed says he’s “scared” ahead of Monday’s vote
  • APNU warns cut borrowing for Budget 2026 as oil prices slide

The Brief: So Monday’s the big day, right? Wrong. We’ve been saying “Monday’s the big day” since September. Azruddin Mohamed, the US-indicted gold dealer who somehow controls a quarter of the National Assembly, is apparently “scared” about the Opposition Leader vote. Scared of what? Losing? Winning? Having to explain to his American lawyers why he’s running a country instead of running from an extradition warrant?
