The unprecedented production statistics recorded in recent days by oil and gas giant, ExxonMobil has not slipped the attention of the Oil and Gas Governance Network (OGGN), an advocacy arm dedicated to better management of Guyana’s petroleum sector.

Vice President, Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo yesterday condemned a recent attack on Kaieteur News’ Senior Journalist, Davina Bagot via a Facebook platform. Speaking at a press conference at Freedom House, the People’s Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) General Secretary said the social media post indeed made vile and disparaging statements about Bagot which should not have been said.

The Oil and Gas Governance Network (OGGN) has issued a written appeal to the nation’s 24 women Parliamentarians, urging that they condemn all attacks against journalists here.  

A group of 23 women and two men have issued a letter to the press, calling on government and other aligned actors to cease their vile attacks against activists, journalists, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and human rights defenders who are doing their part to represent the interests of vulnerable groups.
