Dear Editor:
Mr. Lall, not flinching, not slowing down about the oil and natural resources contracts robbing our nation of much needed income, is gaining more and more traction in and out of Guyana. And the Government is scared if Mr. Lall decides to run for public office in 2025. Many hope Mr. Lall would consider it.
At a time when there are few people willing to publicly express their disagreement with the PPP Government and Opposition PNC conniving to ensure our nation remains poor and Exxon and friends becoming deliriously, filthy rich, Mr. Lall’s voice is consistent, loud and clear. He is a man on a mission to ensure Guyana’s wealth benefit the masses of people, especially the ordinary, little people – the working poor. People are paying attention and understand the basic message that our oil will be depleted once the oil companies pump out the oil as quickly as they could, to make much money quickly for themselves.
Every Guyanese who understands that it is the foreign companies and their oil contractor friends they brought to work in Guyana are benefitting most from oil, must spread the Glenn Lall message being explained on KN Radio and the KN paper. Never mind the occasional cash grants that Government gives out; the oil companies get cash grants every day. They boast to their shareholders that, “Life is Good,” and “Guyana is their milking cow that keeps giving and giving and giving.”
There is no one else in Guyana that cares as much as Mr. Lall about the fleecing of Guyana’s oil, gold/diamonds, timber, and other natural resources. People are understanding Mr. Lall’s message. I encourage everyone to read the papers and tune in to the programmes on KN Radio on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, as Mr. Lall explains all the ways in which Guyana is being robbed.
Both the Government and Opposition are worried that Mr. Lall’s message is resonating among the people. They have unleashed a professor guy who is more of a propaganda chief saying silly things that the contract cannot be renegotiated, when the contract itself says it can be renegotiated with agreement on both sides. There is another fellow, not an academic or educated person, nor a critic, making swipes and telling people not to listen to Glenn Lall. And there is another fellow calling himself a financial analyst, barely qualified, who thinks he knows more than real, seasoned academics and professors. The Government is simply scared of Mr. Lall’s popularity, and has unleashed these detractors. Nevertheless, people understand that Mr. Lall stands for the masses and is the voice of the poor and dispossessed. His message is powerful.
However, we must give credit to the repentant AFC for now coming out strongly for renegotiation. There is also a growing set of PNC folks who are joining the oil renegotiation bandwagon. Wake up Guyana! It’s “Our Country and Our Wealth.”
Sincerely,
Dr. Jerry Jailall
