Dem got some women who when dem pass by you dem looking good and smelling good. You think de best of dem till you go in and see how dem live. Jagdeo go to Bartica and he see de police station after a fire nearly bun it down. Right away he tell Gajraj fuh build a new police station.
Well Bartica got a police station that look good from outside, but go inside. De police ain’t got bed fuh sleep on and de chair that dem does sit down on is to train dem to balance. De chair ain’t got seat, suh dem police got to behave like if dem wukking at Kissoon. Dem got to tek piece sponge from somebody old bed and a piece of board from de sawmill.
Dem boys want to know if Rohee never check fuh see how dem police had to exist. But he was quick to run to Berbice and get a whole police station transfer because de people who live nearby didn’t want dem police. Don’t talk ‘bout de kitchen. How de pot balance pun de table wha balancing de stove dem boys want to know.
One man seh that there was a time when a man coulda carry a woman to he barracks. Now de woman got to carry him to she barracks because de policeman bed can’t even tek he own weight. And de man who dem boys use to call See-all got to name Blind-all, because he ain’t never see de conditions under which he police dem had to live.
And he give strict order that police mustn’t beg fuh nutten, suh even if people did want to give dem ranks a bed or a chair dem police had to refuse. Is only de big ones coulda tek things from dem Chinese and de Brazilians.
Dem boys cry when dem see how de people who got to protect dem got to live. And is now dem boys know why See-All, who can’t see nutten, couldn’t solve any crime when he was Crime Chief. But de police ain’t de only ones who get ignore. Brassington was busy spending money, but couldn’t see how dem GPL people was living at Bartica.
He tek de money to give Jagdeo and he couldn’t tek money to mek de Bartica workers happy. De men got to eat in grease water, use a toilet that can’t flush in this day and age, and de place got a fan that de men can’t wuk because it gun only stir up de germs.
Now dem workers singing de praises of Hapnew and Hay Heff See. Dem claim that de coalition save dem and is now dem believe that de Creatah don’t give people more than dem can bear. Of course is not easy to bear Brassington.
Talk half and hope that Brassington end up living like dem Bartica workers.
