Cricket impasse: GCB executives resign en masse
Following the resignation of President Ramsay Ali, Lionel Jaikarran and Chetram Singh from the embattled Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) the rest of the executive committee of the GCB tendered their resignation in a letter yesterday to Sports Minister Frank Anthony.
Following is the full text of the resignation letter:
The Executive committee of the Guyana Cricket Board elected at the Annual General Meeting of 10th July 2011, hereby tender their resignation.
We have been subjected to tremendous stress over the past weeks due to unrelenting state sponsored court proceedings, searches and arrests. The threat of similar action has now been extended to include our constituent members’ executives.
Under duress we managed to outfit and send our teams to WICB tournaments but a recent court injunction prevents us from performing any function, never the less, as you requested, we have delayed this resignation until we were satisfied that all was done to ensure our team continues to participate in the regional Four(4) day competition.
We are satisfied that, as Executives of the GCB, we have always performed our functions professionally, honestly and diligently for the upliftment of this glorious game.
The Guyana Cricket Board is presently in the best financial position it has ever been in its history with $400,000 USD in its bank account even though we under took many investment projects eg. Hostels, training facilities etc. The Annual Audit report for 2011 is almost completed and would be forwarded to your office shortly, by our Auditor Barcellos, Narine & Co.
We will always be available to answer any questions you may have or to continue to assist in any way possible.
Yours Sincerely,
Fizul Bacchus
