DEAR EDITOR,
Those four words allegedly used by alleged partnering opportunists at the State controlled GUYOIL reveal the real Guyana in action. As captured on 21st century technology, screen shots and embedded verbiage confirm and convey exactly how the business of the people of this nation is overseen, handled, practiced. This is from the highest governing councils to men in the middle and right down to end beneficiaries.
I must make something clear immediately. When I mention ‘highest governing councils’ I do not limit myself to boards of directors. Rather, I elevate to the top of the PPP leadership hierarchy. If any Guyanese is so crass as to claim either ignorance or disbelief, then he should be placed in solitary confinement. Permanently. Now, the four words I seek to emphasise are “yuh time gun come” (KN April 25). It is clear that four months after last Christmas Day, ecstatic members of the victorious PPP are still celebrating daily and just about everywhere. After all, this is democracy, one of the happiness hallmarks of unclean governance and unethical leadership, for which I again point to the top layers. But if it is not today, it is going to be tomorrow, with many other happy and rewarding days promising to follow. Just bear yuh chafe, buddy, and doan rack no boat with yuh stupidee impatience. Oh, and by the way, just ensure that nothing is being recorded. Also, if there are actually any recordings (as suspected), then delete those immediately.
Editor, this is how clean governance is delivered in Guyana today. When unclean and unethical leaders put unclean men in positions of stewardship, then only the grotesquely criminal can occur. When men with tawdry histories are recalled and reinstalled in positions of potency, then only the most acute and serial types of vagabondage can result. In fact, this is what is expected of them, if they are to justify their existence. This is what they are brought back for and in droves. Dirty men, crooked men and men with monstrously dark visions dancing in their heads on how to seize the moment and make the best out of a mouthwatering situation. After all, they know the score. That is, the political godfathers (think high up) that put them there are waiting impatiently in the wings for their percentage of the action. Guyanese do not need to know how the American Mafia or Sicilian Cosa Nostra operates, for there is the PPP and its leadership sopranos, as local equivalents.
Naturally, they have the best defence available around here: they dig up all those sickening examples of stalwart PNC men and women, who used public office to make hay while the thick elections clouds hovered. To steal a word from the tapes of the alleged GUYOIL conspirators, I substitute “shout.” As in the gold bush, somebody hit it big. In the meantime, the leaders speak of democracy and accountability, while deh get men fuh raab de peeple blind. Indeed, “yuh time gun come.”
Sincerely,
GHK Lall
