Dear Editor,
I have only recently read the stories about the various addresses at the Flag Raising Ceremonies around the country to herald in the Anniversary of Republican status.
Did anyone realize that all the addresses were PPP campaign soundings? None, not one spoke to the genesis of this accomplishment and how we as a country could move on to benefit etc. None. All went down the lane of what has been happening since the PPP took over in 1992. Usual chorus. Every event is used as a political platform. A funeral, Cheddi Jagan’s memorial, Janet Jagan’s memorial, The Enmore Martyrs – all of these events are misused to try to continue the tomfoolery. This is because the PPP officials have nothing really to tell the populace. They have no plan to develop this country but they do have plans to clean out the coffers before they leave.
The PPP took over a country and have successfully managed to bring it to almost rags and ruin. No, I think they did something – they have enforced corruption at the highest and most lawless of levels. Quite frankly, the country is owned by approximately eleven people. The rest of us are mere minions trying to run in the other direction while the rat race goes on.
Mr. Editor, your newspaper is a tiny light at the end of the tunnel. Please do keep at exposing the dirty tricks. You are doing a great job! Patriotic Guyanese
