Cheddi Jagan, 4th President of Guyana

Cheddi Jagan was the 4th president of Guyana who was first elected as Prime Minister of Guyana. In his earlier years, Jagan came to the States to study pre-dental at Howard University. After returning to British Guiana he began his political career. On January 1st, the People’s Progressive Party was formed, as Jagan as its leader. This medical center in my neighborhood is dedicated to Jagan because the people of Guyana loved him. My father and grandfather both said he was one of the best presidents Guyana has ever seen, he took the country out of turmoil. Jagan is widely regarded as the “Father of the Nation”
