Minister Nadir objects to Lincoln Lewis’s attacks
Dear Editor,
I have notice in your papers of June 6, that Mr. Lincoln Lewis is again at it. While I will not deal with his inaccuracies, he is now making a new sweeping charge against the government of working with employers to undermine the Trade Union Movement. I quote from your papers,
“Lewis said that what was pellucid, however, was the fact that the Government is now working with employers to undermine the Trade Union Movement in Guyana.”

Manzoor Nadir
Minister of Labour
