saying that he cannot take the time out to comment on every social media activist that hands out a few things to people. Mohamed has been drawing large crowds during visits to communities across the country. And recently he caused quite a stir when he rolled into Corentyne to visit a large group of fishermen and other citizens. Mohamed has also made several visits to the hinterland- building homes for indigenous residents, setting up small businesses for some and providing other gifts. He has also drawn strong appeal in recent stops in communities such as Albouystown and Victoria where scores of young people swarmed him.

However, Mohamed is under US sanctions. Last year the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control imposed sanctions on the Mohameds on allegations of tax evasion and PPP, executive member, Mae Thomas for allegedly misusing her position to offer benefits, like government contracts to the Mohameds. At his weekly press conference, held at the party’s headquarters, Freedom House on Robb Street, Jagdeo was asked to share the extent of his worry about the multi-ethnic feedback from Guyanese every time Mr. Mohamed goes out in public and if he decides to contest the 2025 General and Regional elections.

He told the media that he is the leader of a political party, the largest one in Guyana, and his party has gotten to where it is because of its commitment to the citizens and the groundwork its members put in. “We transform the lives of many people, and we have… because of that, we have won several elections. We’re the only multi ethnic party in the country, and you can see evidence of that. For me to comment politically on individuals and what they are doing would be premature,” Jagdeo said.
