WIN Member of Parliament Dr. Andre Lewis resigns from Guyana’s National Assembly, citing ongoing police investigations into allegations of a sexual nature. Multiple outlets report that Lewis is under investigation after being taken into custody, and that his resignation letter is dated October 2, 2026.
The reports describe the allegations as serious and involving a minor at the time of the alleged conduct, though none of the outlets provide detailed evidence or findings. Guyana Chronicle and others note that the Guyana Police Force does not comment on the investigation, indicating it is still ongoing. Kaieteur News and INews Guyana both publish or reference the formal resignation process, including that Lewis writes to the Speaker of the National Assembly, Manzoor Nadir.
Across outlets, a key difference is emphasis: one report frames the move as public accountability, while another stresses that the resignation follows arrest and that it is not necessarily an admission of guilt. Despite these varying angles, all sources agree on the resignation date and the presence of an active police inquiry.
