President of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), Bissoondyal Singh, has delivered a resounding public endorsement for President Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali’s bid for re-election, praising his leadership as the driving force behind Guyana’s meteoric rise in both sports and national development.
Speaking at a recent awards ceremony honoring outstanding contributors to Guyanese sport, Singh urged the audience to recognize the visionary leadership that has underpinned Guyana’s progress over the past five years. He described President Ali as “the architect of the transformation and modernising of this country,” crediting him with elevating Guyana onto the global stage and making it the fastest-growing economy per capita in the world.
Singh highlighted Ali’s leadership qualities—vision, courage, and compassion—while noting his dynamic vision for inclusive development. Under Ali’s stewardship, Singh said, sports have become a pillar of national pride and unity, with teams flourishing, communities growing stronger, and countless lives positively changed. “He leads with vision, courage, and firm resolve. But more importantly, he leads with heart. He inspires trust, cultivates unity, and brings out the best in those around him,” Singh told the gathering.
The GCB president called on attendees to rise in recognition of President Ali’s exceptional service and leadership, stating, “We are proud of you. We are inspired by you. And we stand with you.” Singh, speaking on behalf of the entire Guyana Cricket Board membership, offered his full endorsement and support for Ali’s continued presidency and the leadership of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C).
Singh’s remarks echo a broader sentiment of gratitude and optimism within Guyana’s sporting and wider national community, as the country continues its remarkable trajectory of growth and development. With the 2025-2030 horizon in sight, Singh concluded with a message of unity and hope: “May your leadership and guidance continue to uplift this great land we all love and call home.”
