President Donald Ramotar last Thursday received a copy of Volumes One and Two of late President Janet Jagan’s speeches in the National Assembly, the preface for which was authored by President Ramotar.
Professor David Dabydeen, head of the Caribbean Press and Guyana’s ambassador to China, during a courtesy call presented the head of state with the books as well as a copy of his latest novel Johnson’s Dictionary. Professor Dabydeen was quoted by the Government Information Agency as saying a batch of the two volumes of speeches is on its way to Guyana via sea.
Mrs Jagan was president from December 19, 1997 to August 11, 1999. She previously served as prime minister from March 17, 1997, to December 19, 1997.
