Please see release from the Opposition Chief Whip, Christopher Jones:
Today, January 26, 2022, Members of Parliament representing the APNU+AFC were informed of the resignation of the Hon. Joseph F. Harmon, MP, as Leader of the Opposition. While we are all disappointed in this development, we appreciate that recent developments within the PNCR and APNU have determined that changes are inevitable.
We take the opportunity to thank Mr. Harmon for his sterling contribution thus far. In the circumstances, the Members of Parliament will urgently consult with the leadership of their respective parties so that the way forward, and a suitable candidate to assume the important office of Leader of the Opposition can be identified.
We are advised that the temporary absence of a Leader of the Opposition is no hindrance to the proceedings of the National Assembly ensuing and we will continue to function accordingly.
