Chicken farm poses serious health problems
Dear Editor,
Often times, in our society, we experience the harsh reality of the suffering of the ordinary citizens. Enduring the suffering, would automatically make one ask, is there a law for the poor, humble and law abiding citizen and none for the rich and wealthy?
This is the real life situation we are experiencing in this country.
At Chateau Margot, East Coast Demerara, there is a business entity. In this very yard there is a huge illegal chicken farm with thousands of chickens.
This farm is a very serious health hazard to the residents of the neighbourhood.
There is this constant stinking smell that envelopes the entire atmosphere and causes this burning sensation to the eyes and nose, which result in unbearable discomfort and pain. Then there is dust that emanates from this farm that result in regular sneezing and coughing. To top it up, the flies of all description and the rats are increasing daily.
This discomfort we have been enduring for more than two years. The owners are just happy to create this environment of discomfort for the residents, while they lavish in the spoils.
This situation was reported to many institutions, but to date we are still enduring the discomfort. The law for the poor, humble and law abiding citizen is to take it and keep quiet, while the rich and lawless rides way above, for there is no law for them to answer to.
It is hoped that letter would force the relevant authorities, that this situation continues to exist and someone with a heart will venture to assist.
