Ms. Burton should acquaint herself with what took place between 1992 and 2015
Dear Editor,
Guess who the stork dropped off in Guyana just a few days ago – Ms. Gillian Burton. Ms. Burton now realizes that all Guyanese are entitled to their human rights. It therefore means that this lady was not born before last week and so would not know of the oppression meted out to most Guyanese during the tenure of the PPP Government. Witch hunting, she calls it. Pity we did not have Ms. Burton to speak on our behalf – those of us who were herded out of employment and thrown out to pasture.
Anyhow, like all good school children, Ms. Burton should get real and acquaint herself with what took place between 1992 and 2015. Only a few humans had rights in Guyana – rights to contracts, rights to the best paying jobs, rights to large parcels of land, rights to the big positions, rights to steal without being sanctioned and not to be left out – RIGHTS TO LIFE.
Surely Ms. Burton was in Guyana during the years of state sponsored executions. Is this lady a mother? If she is, then she may pause and put herself in the shoes of the numerous mothers who cannot put closure to their sons’ deaths because they did not get to see their bodies. Corpus delecti!
Please spare us the drama of preaching – do as I say and not as I do. Ms. Burton probably thought that she would be a sitting fat cat ad infinitum and not have to work a day for the rest of her life.
