It may be correct to say that the first two names above are two of the top powerhouses in the land. The bossman of the Guyana Revenue Authority and the Commissioner of Police are powerful authorities. Along with some other Leviathans, these people have written or spoken untruthful things about me. Why little me I don’t know. I have worked at UG for 25 years and never possessed any authority, declining most definitely any jurisdiction over those 25 years.
I have absolutely no influence with the elites in the public bureaucracy and the wider governmental corridors. Last week a desperate parent asked me to help her with a high school transfer. I called the mother of Minister Manickchand who is in charge of high school placement to grant the transfer. From the tone of her voice, I knew rejection was coming. It did. Two of my friends got similar transfers in the very week I made the request. I stay in my corner, touching down only at UG and Kaieteur News then back home. But some powerful people are out to get me. I keep hoping that Lady Luck allows me to survive.
We can start with the GRA bossman. He wrote in this newspaper that I built a mansion. I made a public challenge to him. Let him come with his GRA team, while I will select my choices from the Guyana Press Association. Let the GRA team inspect my home. I don’t have even a self-contained bedroom. I couldn’t even afford to give my daughter that too. The two TV sets are cheap. I have ordinary furniture, ordinary stove and ordinary fridge. My microwave is twelve years old. I worked for 25 years at UG and it was only in 2007 I acquired my own home. The Government said to build five feet up, I went eight feet so my car could be parked under the house.
So where is this mansion that Mr. Sattaur saw and wrote about? Well, Mr. Sattaur could throw Frederick Kissoon in jail. You see, after sending me eight property tax forms to fill in, Mr. Sattaur now has the authority to have me placed before the courts.
Inside this mansion has to be very expensive amenities. All the walls, windows, ceilings have to be made of expensive stuff. But more importantly, I am openly admitting that the value I put on the house on my property tax forms is far, far, far below what a mansion costs.
So the GRA inspectors with their calculators could now prove I am a liar and charge me. The truth is my home is essentially an upper working class home. Maybe CANU should pay a call on me. Shouldn’t the drug men question me about where I got all that money to build a mansion? The challenge to Mr. Sattaur is if it can be proven that I have a mansion, then I will accept prosecution if not, he has to resign. Can someone please buy my mansion? I am selling it for less that $120 million. By the way, three windows are not functioning.
Next we go to His Excellency who publicly proclaimed that I have never published a single research paper in my entire UG career. The open challenge is that I be given a deadline to submit published research and if I fail, I resign from UG and stop doing this column. If I produce the stuff then that gentleman has to resign. It does the credibility of powerful people in this country no good when they can publicly accuse other citizens of wrongdoing and cannot accept a challenge.
Of course, under the Sexual Molestation Act, the people who hate me in the PPP and the Guyana Government can have me thrown in jail. Remember NCN, which just part-sponsored three days of Jamzone, knew the gentleman that threw the miasmic substance in my face in May. He is the father of a young lady that I approached for sex, according to NCN. Yet Mr. Henry Greene hasn’t charged me with sexual molestation.
Well, I’ve got news for the whole of Guyana. I have heard that a father will soon come forward to say that I did try to solicit sex from his daughter and he threw the substance on me. His name is Dr. Pedro Archandro who published letters in the Chronicle accusing me of stealing books.
Mr. Ralph Ramkarran wrote a letter in the Stabroek News saying that he knows Dr. Archandro and he believes what the goodly doctor said about the books. But listen to this! Research done by my friends on Dr. Archandro, reveals that he is a notorious Brazilian homosexual who has no children and has been to prison three times for molesting young boys.
Finally, I am still to hear from Commissioner Greene on the challenge I threw out to him on the seizure of the truck of Mr. Manniram.
