Who is Mr. Larry?

Nov 29, 2015 Letters

Dear Editor,
The article in your Sunday’s edition of November 22, 2015, headlined; “Celina ignores government to halt works” is deceptive. Mention is made in the article that; “Workers said that a “Mr. Larry” was in charge but was not there”.
Kaieteur News must come clean and tell its readers what they knew long ago; that the “Mr. Larry” is a Guyanese businessman who lives in Miami, Florida and who is a close friend and associate of certain Ministers’ of Government and the police. He usually tenders for the procurement of arms and ammunition. The quiet and strong backing  “Mr.Larry” receives from government gives him the confidence to proceed with the works at the seawall site.
It is note-worthy to see that a well known Guyanese is the spokesperson for the new proprietors of Celina’s. This person is a close associate of the APNU+AFC administration. He was one of the men behind the presidential swearing in at the Parliament Buildings and at the Inauguration Ceremony at the National Stadium. He is also a key person planning Guyana’s 50th Independence Anniversary celebrations. My opinion is that he is one of the “blue eyes” boys to be in governmental circles circle. Nowadays, in Guyana we don’t know who or what to believe. Why should Minister Patterson be believed? Are these people to be believed when they say that “at least three Court orders have been issued and ignored? “Mr. Larry must” have powerful backers indeed.
