Justice Patterson’s appointment as GECOM chair is illegal

Oct 22, 2017 Letters

Dear Editor,
Mr Granger has built a reputation of being unable to play a fair game. He can’t be trusted. And he is unfit to run a democracy. Obviously, democracy is on a death spiral under his leadership. His unilateral appointment of the 84 year old James Patterson as GECOM chair is illegal, unconstitutional, undemocratic, abusive, lawless, uncivilised and disrespectful to the people of this country. Such immoral and uncivilised actions by Mr Granger have paved the way for political persecution and election fraud reminiscent of the Forbes Burnham era.
Mr Granger is bursting with ignorance and arrogance which are typical symptoms of despots. There are no kind words to describe such a reckless man. History is repeating itself. Mr Granger’s behaviours should never be tolerated. Guyanese deserve better. At this time, I stand with the parliamentary opposition in whatever course of actions it takes in its fight for democracy in this country. Mr Granger and the APNU/PNC/AFC should never be allowed to trample our democratic rights.
Annie Baliram
