The opposition United National Congress (UNC) has rejected a Guardian Media report, which stated that members of the party would be boycotting Monday’s inauguration of President-elect Christine Kangaloo.
Chief whip, David Lee, in a media release on Saturday, said there is no mandate or policy which prevents any UNC Parliamentarian from attending Monday’s events.
At the Opposition’s last Parliamentary Caucus on February 24th, 2023, it was unanimously agreed by all members that Opposition Parliamentarians wishing to attend the event can do so.
He wrote that the Opposition has always and will always respect the Office of the President as well as its Office holders hence our previous calls to ensure it was not held by an active partisan politician.
