Azruddin Mohamed Declares Confidence in WINning September 1 Elections
By Marvin Cato | HGP Nightly News
Georgetown, Guyana – Azruddin Mohamed, presidential candidate for the We Invest in Nationhood (WIN) party, is confident that his movement is on track to secure victory in the upcoming September 1 general and regional elections.
Speaking at a campaign rally on Monday in Seafield, Sophia, Mohamed received a rousing welcome from residents as he positioned himself and his party as the only multiethnic alternative to the two dominant political forces in Guyana.
“Why will we win the election? Because the people want change,” Mohamed declared to applause. “And we are the only multiethnic party in Guyana.”
Pledges: Housing for the Vulnerable, Fighting Corruption
Mohamed promised that under a WIN-led government, the country’s most vulnerable would receive free housing. He emphasized that his administration would prioritize citizens’ well-being over political favoritism.
“I will ensure that I build houses free for the vulnerable people in this country,” he stated.
Addressing concerns about corruption—amid ongoing allegations involving himself, his father, and former PPP/C government official Mae Thomas—Mohamed described corruption as a “mosquito sucking the blood of the common man” and accused the current administration of allowing it to spiral out of control.
“This year’s budget was $1.3 trillion, and 25–30% of it ends up in the pockets of the government,” he alleged, without providing direct evidence.
Tabitha Sarabo-Halley Backs WIN Party
The rally also featured former Minister of Public Service Tabitha Sarabo-Halley, who recently joined WIN. Sarabo-Halley, who served in the 11th and 12th Parliaments, praised Mohamed’s character and his personal contributions to underserved communities.
“He’s helping people with his own money and not asking for anything in return,” she said. “That comes from the heart.”
She added that her move to WIN was the “best political decision” she had made, citing the party’s commitment to genuine service and community upliftment.
Focus on Education and Youth Empowerment
In her remarks, Sarabo-Halley also promised systemic reforms in the education sector, noting that too many students are struggling with hunger, unemployment, and overcrowded classrooms.
“We go to school and still can’t find jobs. Some students are hungry in class. Teachers are lacking. These are the issues we will fix.”
Toward a United “One Guyana”
Mohamed closed the rally with a renewed call for unity, stating that WIN is committed to building a “One Guyana” where opportunity and prosperity are shared by all—not just the privileged few.
“Our mission is clear: to create a nation where every Guyanese matters, and not just the ones aligned with power.”
