Neatly dressed with a casual ambience, in American politics, the media would refer to the good-looks of Shuman, the leader of the Liberty and Justice Party, which has Amerindian support.
Shuman is quietly spoken for a man who wants to play a huge part in Guyana’s constitutional future. Continue reading →
