Roxane George, at 10:20h before a packed gathering on the lawns of State House in Georgetown, where his inauguration ceremony was held and culminated with a grand cultural presentation and brunch at the Esplanade, Kingston Seawalls. In his first Address to the Nation after being sworn in for his second term as president, Dr Ali reaffirmed his commitment to be a president who represents all Guyanese.
“As I first declared on August 2, 2020, I am not the President of some Guyanese; I am the President of all Guyana. That principle has guided me and the government for the last five years, 2020-2025, and it shall remain my compass in the years ahead. My mission is unchanged. It remains to serve every citizen of this land, irrespective of creed, community, or conviction, ensuring that every Guyanese has a place in our national family and a stake in our shared future,” he stated. The President went on to assure persons who did not vote for him at the September 1 General and Regional Elections that he will still work to develop their lives and communities. “One Guyana is not a slogan — it is a lived ethic. Each of us are equal in dignity, equal in opportunity, and equal in respect. To those of us who did not support me, know this: I am your president too,” the newly re-elected Guyanese Leader committed. (iNewsGuyana)
