This is arrogance to the max
Dear Mr. Editor,
I am not too tolerant of arrogance in our elected officials and I burn with fury when I see it. I say this due to your article on page 3 of yesterday’s (Wednesday 9th September) KN issue Re – “Jagdeo sets conditions for disclosure of his wealth”. The main condition he wants met seems to be that other politicians should disclose their wealth also.
That is arrogance to the max for he fails to acknowledge that it’s him we the people want to know most about in terms of wealth acquisition whilst in and out of office.
I am quite sure that many Guyanese will agree that we don’t need him to set conditions to disclose his wealth for he should be glad to do so if his accumulation of wealth is/was lawful. With the many rumours that abound that are casting a negative light on his legacy and good name, he should have willingly disclosed long ago where and how he got every cent he has in order to clear his name and fortify his legacy. Failing to do so willingly only fuels the belief that all was not above board with his acquisition of wealth.
The former President needs to come out and disclose his wealth and how he achieved what he has.
It’s he we the people want to hear from on this matter first. Come clean, Mr. Jagdeo (pun intended).
John M. London
