Where I see a need to speak out on issues to preserve our Republic, I shall not hesitate to do so

Jun 12, 2023 Letters

Dear Editor,

Kaieteur News – I have noted the comments by Dr. David Hinds directed to me on the Gildharie and Freddie Show on June 9, 2023 which was conducted on a live Meta feed via the Guyanese Critic page.

In that live video between 9 mins, 21  seconds and 10 mins and 46 secs, there was another attempt by Dr. David Hinds to label me with a pejorative tag that has no place in a modern multi-ethnic society.

In order to erase any doubt, I hereby wish to reiterate the principles articulated in my statement issued on March 13. In that statement, I expressed concerns over statements issued by Mr. Tacuma Ogunseye in which he made inflammatory statements that can threaten the peace and security of Guyana.

Although, I am in the Opposition realm, my commitment to country is paramount and where I see a need to speak out on issues to preserve our Republic, I shall not hesitate to do so.

Dr. Hinds’ paternalistic and chauvinist calls for me to ‘shut up’, will not affect the sacred commitment to country.

Regardless of one’s ethnic origins, the peace and unity of Guyana is everyone’s business and no one should have their tongues tied in these affairs due to tribal and ethnic restrictions.

Regards
Ms Geeta Chandan-Edmond
Attorney -at-Law
