How about working together to move Guyana forward? 

Sep 25, 2023 Letters

DEAR EDITOR, 

Kaieteur News – I do not know why some politicians get involved in politics in Guyana. Is it about building infrastructure to develop the country? Is it about helping people in their daily struggle for a better life? Is it to leave a lasting legacy?

I suspect that most politicians get involved in Guyana to help people in their daily struggle for a better life. But somewhere along the line they get caught up in their own personal struggles for power leading to changing perspectives.

In the past Guyanese politicians had the luxury of saying and working only for “their Constituents” (or, only for people who voted for them). But this luxury is outdated as the Guyanese electorate is more clued-in through social media.

Before, the Guyanese Electorate could be and was taken for granted. Today, Guyanese are looking for politicians that will work for all Guyanese not just those who voted for them or look like them. Just look at the recent Bigging-Up of President Irfaan Ali during his Good Morning Britain “Interview” with Richard Madeley. It is time for politicians in Guyana to wise-up to this fact. Politicians in Guyana need to represent ALL GUYANESE to get elected.

As for those who are currently entrusted in governing Guyanese and managing the affairs of the Guyanese Nation (the Government, that is), they need to consult with the Opposition. Look at how Guyanese are coming together when Venezuela Maduro is pushing his spurious claim for our Essequibo County.

Guyanese for the most part live and work peacefully side by side.

Sincerely,
Sean Ori
