Leaders Demand Minister Resign Over Ferry Tragedy | Guyana News

Two top hinterland leaders are demanding the resignation of Guyana’s Public Works Minister over the deadly MV Barima ferry disaster, accusing him and his team of ignoring safety failures that led to lives lost. Romario Hastings blames political appointments and misallocated resources, while Chris Debideen, who lost family members in the sinking, calls for modern, safe river transport and swift accountability. Both leaders argue that leadership must be held responsible — not just for investigations, but for systemic reform that prevents future tragedies and restores public trust.
