Still looking for real change in Mabaruma
Dear Editor,
The elections have come and gone and a new Government is in place. We, who were in the struggle over the years of PPP dictatorship, voted for CHANGE. It is therefore not rude of us to say that we in the Mabaruma are waiting with bated breath for even a smattering of change.
Instead we still see the Lords trumping up over us. We are still getting water through our taps intermittently – like two, sometimes three times a week.
Both sides of the road do not get water on the same day. We have to fetch from the other side when it is not our time. We are still being treated to the minute electricity supply even though we are told that the fuel bill per month indicates that we are getting a 24 hour supply (daily).
We are seeing items being removed and taken to personal homes and with Government vehicles too. We still see the Ambulance being kept at the home of the ambulance driver. We see the feeble attempt at road repairs maybe in a mad rush to clean up some more dollars from the coffers. We feel limbless.
Resident of Mabaruma
