Dear Editor,
I refer to the article captioned “Local Government Commission (LGC) will be given some consideration – Granger”. The article stated, “Granger told reporters at State House when asked about the establishment of the commission that he was abroad for about a fortnight resulting in this and other matters being held up”.
For the record, the PPP submitted its nomination to the LGC since July 2016 and Granger being out of the country for 2 weeks has very little with the delay in this Commission. If Mr. Granger cannot count, July 2016 was 66 weeks ago and his being away for 2 weeks was nothing but a puerile excuse.
Some might want to say that Granger is absolutely incompetent and not in control of his government. I myself was caught in that cul-de-sac for a while until I realize that is this incompetence is really a mask for a dastardly plan to march dictatorship back into the corridors of power in Guyana. These deliberate presidential actions that mirror incompetence are really schemes grounded in subterfuge and deception to weaken the institutions of the State such as the LGC.
Granger has shown a penchant for wickedness that not even Burnham could match. To deny a nation it’s LGC because you got a sound thrashing at the local polls exhibits evilness of a special order. This is the punishment to the people for voting against Granger in the local polls.
Now Guyana knows who it is dealing with; someone who takes his cue from Burnham.

Hard Truths by GHK Lall (Kaieteur News) – Guyanese should get first prize for their tolerance for bull, their bottomless reservoir of docility. And humour.
