The Guyana Livestock Development Authority (GLDA) says recent social media claims about the GLDA abattoir at Onverwagt, Region Five, are based on speculation and misinformation. In a statement, the authority rejects what it describes as attempts to create a “false narrative” and says the claims disregard production evidence and the facility’s role in supporting livestock-related activities.
GLDA points to production records as the basis for its position, stating that the abattoir is “delivering results.” The authority argues that the public should rely on documented information rather than unverified posts circulating online. It also frames the criticism as overlooking the importance of the facility’s contribution.
Across the coverage, both outlets present GLDA’s response as a denial of the social media allegations and an assertion that available records contradict those claims. No independent production figures or counter-evidence are provided in the reports, and the details of the specific online allegations are not reproduced in full.
