So now we have the sad and sickening situation of this breakaway, Trade Union Movement, FITUG, issuing a Statement titled ‘Ministerial Plenary shows contempt for High Court Ruling, – FITUG, (Kaieteur News, February 19, 2019).
This body of Trade Union leaders should instead of venturing into an arena outside of their mandate and beyond their competence should devote their energies to support the workers who are being brutalized by an alien group, RUSAL.
They should be reminding our leaders and people that when Jagan and Burnham witnessed the hoisting of the Golden Arrowhead at midnight of 25 – 26th May, 1966, it signaled an end to colonialism and imperialist relationship.
This meant we should not allow foreign businesses to exploit and disrespect Guyanese workers.
FITUG next statement should be to condemn RUSAL and demand that the Government takes drastic actionso that in the words of an Elder that ‘this confounded nonsense must stop.’
If they wish to acquire knowledge I suggest they read the Statement by Former Judge of the Caribbean Court of Justice, Professor Duke Pollard, as contained in Guyana Chronicle of February 17, 2019 written by a Staff Reporter titled ‘Chief Justice misdirected herself,’
The article addresses with great elucidation the legal, constitutional and political issues related to this No Confidence Vote of the 21st of December, 2018.
I recommend all citizens to read this article.
My advice to FITUG is ‘Shoemaker stick to your Last.’
