The Pa­tri­ot­ic Front po­lit­i­cal leader, Mick­ela Pan­day, will open nom­i­na­tions to­mor­row to po­ten­tial can­di­dates to con­test the 41 con­stituen­cies in the 2025 gen­er­al elec­tion.

Pan­day made the an­nounce­ment last evening on the 91st birth­day an­niver­sary of her fa­ther, the late prime min­is­ter Bas­deo Pan­day, dur­ing a func­tion to re­mem­ber and pay trib­ute to him at Twins Wall Com­pound, La Ro­main. 

Ad­vis­ing that nom­i­na­tion forms could be found on the par­ty’s web­site, the for­mer Oropouche West MP and at­tor­ney said, “We seek can­di­dates who will lis­ten to the peo­ple, who will be a true voice for their con­stituents in the halls of pow­er. If you be­lieve in our val­ues and are pas­sion­ate about serv­ing your con­stituen­cy, we en­cour­age you to step for­ward.” She ex­plained that win­ning can­di­dates would be cho­sen by the con­stituents of the re­spec­tive con­stituen­cies. 

Pan­day al­so made an open call to those in­ter­est­ed in be­ing a mem­ber of the par­ty or vol­un­teer­ing. “There is a place for every­one in the home of The Pa­tri­ot­ic Front. Let your voice be heard, and let us write a new chap­ter in our na­tion’s sto­ry to­geth­er.”

The par­ty was formed in 2020 to con­test the gen­er­al elec­tions but bowed out of the race ow­ing to in­suf­fi­cient time to mo­bilise them­selves be­fore the Au­gust 10 elec­tion.
