M. Maxwell’s response to Carl Greenidge
Dear Editor,
It came to my attention just yesterday, October 29, 2012, that Carl Greenidge wrote a letter titled “I never sought or took advice from Ms. Teixeira” (KN, October 28, 2012) in which he asked for my retraction of assertions made in my letter of June 8, 2012.
I did not send a letter to Kaieteur News on June 8, 2012 nor has Kaieteur News published a letter by me on June 8, 2012. I do not know where Mr. Greenidge is getting this information from as I have looked in the actual Kaieteur News newspaper of June 8, 2012 and could not find a letter written by me.
To make this June 8, 2012 date more absurd, the information from the newspapers publicly available online indicate the PAC meeting in issue occurred on June 25, 2012. I have be a fortune teller to have written a letter some 17 days before the event occurred.
The only letter Kaieteur News published on my behalf on the PAC matter was dated June 28, 2012 titled “The PAC disaster confirms the PPP, APNU and AFC are unfit to deliver quality governance to Guyana.”
In that letter Carl Greenidge was not named nor was any reference made to Carl Greenidge.
I condemned all the parties (PPP, PNC/APNU and the AFC) on the PAC issue in that letter.
I have asked Kaieteur News to provide me with a copy of that letter from Carl Greenidge’s lawyer as I need to see what is being alleged by Mr. Greenidge in relation to a non-existent June 8, 2012 letter I supposedly wrote.
I never made any public assertions in Kaieteur News against Carl Greenidge on this PAC matter. Unlike Freddie Kissoon, I never mentioned Greenidge’s name in my letter relating to the PAC issue nor was my letter specific to or directed to Carl Greenidge.
I made several assertions against the PPP, PNC/APNU and the AFC in that letter and I unequivocally defend my right as a citizen of this country to criticize all of those parties which publicly seek office and power from the people of Guyana.
I will be happy to retract any assertions I have made where they infringe upon free speech limits and I would even happier to withdraw any assertions I have wrongfully made against Carl Greenidge if he could point me to where I have done so.
M. Maxwell
