Dear Editor,
Allow me a few words on MR Sherod Duncan, who comes across as our brightest hope, a proverbial knight in shining amour and his recent disclosure that he takes responsibility for not reporting a child abuse which knowledge he had, nor did he inquire or ensure that this crime was reported.
This self serving release is just that, it serves no purpose other to expose the fact that if this could have remain hidden it still would and his amour would still be bright and shinning. The fact that a child has been abused and this not reported for months is a disgrace on all officials who were party to this knowledge.
This is the same Mr Duncan the champion of the poor downtrodden youths who make much noise of the Giftland Mall implementation of a entrance fee of $1,000 for a four hour period on Christmas Eve last, a measure that was highly appreciated by our customers who have numbered in return visits to the Mall of over five million since its opening and for who Mr Duncan would like us to ruin their enjoyment for a few who could not afford the limited entrance fee.
Not only was the Mall Management complimented on this move but we witnessed riots and malls shutting down on the said Christmas Eve, in the USA, Europe, Asia and Africa due to the same youths control measures not being implemented worldwide.
Mr Duncan needs to be cognizant when targeting his victims. Giftland for one will not be cowered; we see him for the political animal he is. It would take several of his lifetimes to match us in our to creation and support for the depressed and downtrodden being, good corporate citizens and supplier of taxes, being major employers and development of Guyana , building and sustaining lives, supporters of local industry, the Arts, Sports, Youth and Culture, for these the Giftland Group stands proud and strong of its past and future commitment to the development of Guyana. In a non partisan way, we will not tolerate the disrespect of persons like Sherod Duncan.
