Dear Editor,
A couple of weeks ago, I spent a few moments reading the evidence given by the Honorable Chairperson of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) and was, to say the least, astounded by the evidence given by the goodly lady.
I resolved to remain quiet and just “swallow me spit”.
When I thought it couldn’t get worse, lo and behold, today’s (5/1/2023) reporting of the evidence by the former Commissioner of Police sent me in a state from which it would be difficult to recover.
I could have never in my wildest dreams (and they can be wild) imagined such INCOMPETENCE existed in two of the highest institutions in our land.
I DON’T expect any of the GECOM officials, whether the former CEO, the Deputy “de mango man” or any of the Commissioners to respond to the GECOM’S Chairperson’s disclosures, but would be very interested in reading in public print, the eloquent responses of Mr. Slowe and Mr. Conway, since they so often have their intense knowledge of the SOP’s of the Police Service displayed in public (mind you, I’m not referring to the SOP’s of the APNU+ AFC, which are still to be made public.
With best regards,
Harry N Nawbatt
