Apr 17, 2009 Dem Boys Seh, Features / Columnists

Do unto others as you would have others do unto you is an old saying in de Bible. Trust and don’t pay is a saying dat Guyanese mek up.
GECOM occupy a man property and didn’t pay rent and de man decide to block de place. He use some concrete slab and den he chain up de door.
In no time de Works Ministry dat couldn’t find equipment fuh pull out one ah it own minibus from a trench, find equipment fuh move de concrete slab dem. And is den dem boys hear that do suh nah like suh.
De man who own de place owe de government rent fuh a property pun de railway embankment. In fact, was a old train station.

Well dem boys seh dat de government planning to move in wid de same concrete slab dat it tek from GECOM and block up de main entrance to de office. De government got heavy equipment, de man ain’t got. Dat mean he might stay lock out.
Is sleepless nights fuh some people because everything gone crazy ever since CLICO collapse. De odder morning de whole country get a shock because de woman who tek over de management of CLICO get shoot. Dem boys couldn’t believe it because people don’t shoot women.
Fuh some reason de rain pour bucket a drop and it didn’t stop. People who like walk suddenly find dat dem had to swim because all de road tun trench. One woman who always walking in high heel shoe like if she born in dem start cry because she couldn’t tell solid road from pothole and she shoe heel break and nearly break she foot.

Suh dis woman who tek over CLICO management was driving in Lombard Street when two men pun a CG motorbike ride right up to she car and shoot she. De woman was good enough to drive away wid de bullet and she get help and end up in hospital.
Is only after de incident dat people start fuh talk how Trinidad serious and how dem going after people who tek dem property dat use to give dem money hand over fist, even if some people had to cut losses. De police begin a patrol and dem start a investigation, but wid rain falling suh hard who got time fuh peep outside fuh see who shoot and who riding away?
Uncle Freddie hear de news and he decide dat he gun stay home because he do enough mischief and people might shoot he too. He couldn’t eat and wasn’t because he didn’t hungry. Is dat he hand did shaking so much dat he couldn’t find he mouth.

He tell he self dat he already in trouble wid Bharrat because he always cussing de man. Besides, he near meet de age of retirement and he done know dat de man ain’t gun give he a extension like how he give Henry—although de man deny dat he give Henry anything.
Of course, Bharrat always talking how Freddie never write no professional article or even write a book dat gun attract peer review. Dem boys seh dat is a good thing Freddie live in Guyana because anywhere else, a university lecturer gat to do a paper every two year and attract peer review. Freddie ain’t write one in thirty year. Dat is wha dem boys seh.
Of course, dem boys seh dat any time something happen in Guyana, Bharrat always flying out. When de woman get shoot he decide dat he gun ketch de plane and he stop in Trinidad. He tell he security that he gun ask Obama if he can get a room in de White House because, after all, dem is Black brothers in de struggle.

And dem boys want to know wha happen to Karen Singh, de water man. De man get disconnect like how he use to disconnect people and he ain’t saying a word. He can’t ask Janet because she ain’t deh no mo, and he can’t ask Donald because he did disconnect Donald one time. He cyan approach Bharrat because de other day Bharrat couldn’t get water fuh bathe and he had to send de maid fuh fetch two bucket. He still vex.
Talk half, lef half.
