Jagdeo, addressing several traditional “bottom house” community meetings, explained that the Party while in Opposition plans to execute a comprehensive strategy for regaining executive power following its recent loss at the recently held May 11 Regional and General Elections.

The Opposition Leader emphasised that the PPP and its leaders has had to console hundreds of party members who became worried following the election results, as well as many who wanted to give up hope, given their experiences in the past.
