Dear Editor,
In the “Dem Boys Seh” column in Kaieteur News’ edition of Tuesday, May 30 2017, reference is made to Mr. Irfaan Ali ‘does eat like a pig….’ Editor I find this analogy distasteful, disrespectful and offensive. Not just because this is the Holy Month of Ramadan but Mr. Ali is a respected Muslim and regardless of our feelings about him, better decorum and respect for one’s religion and practices should be observed. The pig is a cursed animal in the Islamic religion and to equate a Muslim to this cursed animal is totally out of order. Please, better sensibilities need to be on display in satirical pieces in order not to offend anyone for any reason.
