What message is the President sending?

Nov 24, 2009 Letters

Dear Editor,
I am a little confused. While driving down the Avenue of the Republic late last week I managed to see the massive billboard, seeking a third term for President Jagdeo, at the corner of Robb Street and Avenue of the Republic, on an empty lot.
I am sure that it cost a pretty penny. However, that is besides the point.
The PPP has since distanced itself from the billboard and noted via a statement that the President is not seeking a third term, something that is not allowed in the constitution.
I recalled sometime back when Guyana had won a case against Suriname over the contentious Corentyne River and a close worker of the President reportedly erected billboards. The President immediately ordered its removal.
How come now that third term billboard is still there, despite the President’s assertion that he is not interested.
Hmmm, maybe there is something here. I will be waiting to see what actions are now taken.
Concerned citizen
