Is this the same Max Mohamed?

Dear Editor

Perusing the list of delinquent public officials who failed to make an integrity declaration of information of public importance as per the Integrity Act, No. 20 of 1997, one finds an obscure name on that list – MR. MAX MOHAMMED, who is given the designation Technical Advisor on Oil and Gas to the President.
Who is Max Mohammed?
In 1985 a man named Robert Gangadeen, with financial support from the United States allegedly with connections with some Washington DC types, formed a pro-American political party called the United Republican Party (URP). He later joined forces with another political party – the Guyana People’s Party (GPP), also funded from similar sources in the Washington DC area and connected to rogue military groups aligned to people close to the group that fronted for one Colonel (Rtd) Oliver North.
The common theme of these fringe political parties was stance against communism and socialism and their commitment to deny a potential PPP Government office in the 1990 elections. Leslie Ramsammy and his National Republican Party (NRP) later joined this group.
Mr. Robert Gangadeen died, Max Mohammed was pushed out and Leslie Ramsammy won the leadership of the now combined force called the URP which continue to secure its funding from this anti-communist, right-wing extremist outfit in Washington DC.
As the history went, Leslie Ramsammy flipped on his donor and joined the PPP. Max Mohammed regained control of the party and recruited one Vishnu Bandhu, a real estate man from Queens who does not have the best of image in the Richmond Hill community for his business dealings. These people were also connected to Nanda K. Gopaul who later also flipped on their American funders and became a PPP Minister.
Why this message is important? The URP. The URP today is selling itself as a group of independents but one of their principal agents sits as an advisor to President Granger. This vehicle the PNC-APNU is using to fund the URP as a mean to capture votes that would never come to the PNC now that the AFC is now political dead meat?
Is this another attempt by the PNC by way of another of its incarnations – APNU, APNU+AFC, JOPP, PNC+URP and so on, playing with the people’s intelligence to trick them into diverting votes away from the PPP? Guyanese beware of the URP or for that matter any third party because more than likely they are all being funded in some shape or form by the PNC led coalition government.
Fact check situation! I have one question for the Guyana High Commissioner to London His Excellency Hamley Case. Who was the biggest donor at the PNC fundraiser at your house for the 2015 elections? Was it not this same person Max Mohammed?
Do we understand why he has to get a US dollar high figure salary today? Is this the payback for the 2015 donation and also to fund the URP?
Isn’t this model the same kind that the PNC used with Mr. Larry Singh? Donate G$100 million to the party and in return collect a Bond Contract that will return to you over G$425 million? All in a day’s work as a financier of the PNC. This is the PNC; corrupt, kleptocratic and dangerous for Guyana.
