That Chronicle editorial

Jul 26, 2023 Letters

Dear Editor,

Normally I find great pleasure and stimulation reading Editorials of the Kaieteur News and Stabroek News.

Today, a friend called me quite agitated after reading Editorial 24th July, 2023 in the daily Chronicle. The Editorial damned and made ugly the Government up to 1992 stating the wonderful progress made by the PPP up to 2015 and between 2015 and 2020, the Coalition led by the PNC messed things up and according to the Editorial after 2020 Irfaan Ali like a knight in shining armor has made our country a great place.

After reading the Editorial in question I remember a popular calypso, “ yuh hear lie, that is lie.”  They say every story has two sides. What about forms of economic, social and political apartheid being practiced by the PPP? What about the spread of corruption from top to bottom under this administration? What about the infamous black clothes gang apparently  directed by  a certain PPP Minister, whose visa the US revoked,   a rampage that took the lives of many young men in our country? What about the starving of funds of local authorities and agencies, not supportive of the Party in office? What about the PPP failure to renegotiate, as they said they would the lopsided oil contracts?

What about disrespect shown to the independent media, all they say in the name of democracy? What about the burden of cost of living on ordinary workers in the fastest growing economy in the world?

They say you can fool some of the people, some of the time but not all the people all of the time.
