There is work to be done and all hands must be on deck.”He told the incoming NEC members that the national secretariat of the party has proposed uniform guidelines for “the 2018-2019 primaries and determining candidates at all levels of the party structure.”He pointed out that the party took this measure because of the limited time frame within which PRP must conclude its primaries on or before October 7.He warned that “these guidelines are specific to the impending 2019 elections only and may be modified as deemed fit for other subsequent elections.”
