Three Years of Progress

Nov 12, 2017 Letters

Dear Editor,
Please allow me to share my views on the recent happenings at the last sitting of the National Assembly. I must clearly state that what took place was no surprise to me. When I saw the PPP sitting waiting to listen to the President, I knew they had something planned—something awkward and stupid.
It amazed me to see that people who do not want to work were a part of the protest. It was very disgusting to see the PPP using mostly elderly people whom I believe are pensioners to be part of the protest.
Some from my village were even there.
Those are the very people that do nothing to develop their village, but rather want all to be done when they call for it.
When I heard the opposition leader and members saying that this government has no respect for the constitution, it shocked me.
It was Janet Jagan who disrespected the constitution and court order when she was about to be sworn in as President.
In the Parliament when the President was giving his speech, the opposition sat and listened for a while, because they felt that the President won’t highlighted certain things that are happening in Guyana.
But low and behold, as soon as the President started to outline the development that took place under this government for the past three years, the PPP went wild.
They started to shout as if somebody was beating them. They were divided (Devided according to Dr. Doom’s spelling) as to what to say or should be said, it could have clearly heard.
But while some were shouting and disgracing the National Assembly, some of their very own was sleeping because they are not interested to be caught up in such a manner that brings disgrace to the highest office\place that makes the law of this country.
The amount of development taking place across Guyana shows that this government is on the right path.
That the people come first and the good life begins to shine. Progress is happening in all sectors and across Guyana in all the regions.
The PPP doesn’t want that to happen. They are ashamed when the President was saying of all the works and where it is happening.
They had to make noise because for 23 years they could not have done such development across the regions.
So, I must say that the PPP was no surprise because that shows what they can do in trying to stop developmental works in Guyana.
But the people of this land are not stupid, The Gecom chairman is not the reason\s for them to get on in this manner.
It is the power that they want because of the oil that will come in 2020 and they know that it seems very hard for them to get back there in office at the next elections.
This is the same PPP that has been cussing out the APNU+AFC Region 5 councillors for standing up for their rights against the chairman at the RDC.
The PPP is saying that the government councillors are disgracing the RDC and do not want development to take place because of the noise we are making that disrupts RDC meetings.
Today, this very PPP is disrupting and making uncalled for noises in the National Assembly. This is the same PPP that does not want to see development happening across Guyana. This is the same PPP that is calling for people to stop cooperate for a better Guyana.
And they have the gall to tell us at Region 5 RDC what to do. Well, the PPP must know that the RDC meetings will not go on because we on the government side are still awaiting the findings of misused NDIA excavators in Bath Settlement since April 2017. We are still waiting to have the findings of the Housing Rebate Subsidy in December 2016, where the letter was hidden so that the residents could not have benefited.
We are still waiting for the apologies and all other findings from the regional chairman to come to the RDC in writing.
If he fails to comply then we on the APNU+AFC side of the RDC will continue to ensure that we stand up for the people.
The residents of Region 5 must also be guarded against the PPP that does not want to see development in their villages and communities. I must also let my brothers and sisters in region 5 know, that not because the RDC is not meeting there is no development taking place.
They is continuous developmental and D&I works are still happening. The PPP can’t stop this region from moving positively forward.
Let us cooperate towards a better region 5 and a better Guyana under this APNU+AFC government. Let’s not discriminate as the PPP is doing in region 5 and Guyana at large.
Let us unite for a better Guyana under this APNU+AFC government.
Regards.
Abel Seetaram
