Description

On 1 September 2025, Guyana heads to the polls in one of the most closely watched elections in its history. With the country transformed by its oil boom and politics shaped by fragile coalitions, the stakes could not be higher.

In this special episode, Matt Davis speaks with political analyst Dr. Duane Edwards of the University of Guyana about the key players, shifting alliances, and what’s at risk for Guyana’s democracy. From the contest between the incumbent PPP/C and a revitalised opposition, to the wider economic and social pressures driving voter sentiment, the conversation offers a clear-eyed look at a decisive moment for the nation.
