I am very saddened, hurt and depressed by some un-true and defamatory statements made by Mr. Mikhail Rodrigues against the Mohammed’s family.
During my dark days when I was struggling to survive in Guyana Mr. Mohamed (Shell) offered me a job with him at his stall in Stabroek Market. As the years passed by, a bond of love, trust and respect developed and Mr. Mohamed took me in as part of his family. I now had food, shelter, nice clothes and a good salary.
To my great surprise and astonishment Mr. Mohamed went a step further and I was able to join my brother in Toronto Canada, a dream come true. I completed my studies at York University in Toronto and was able to secure a job as a mathematics teacher in high school. This would never have been possible without the kindness and generosity from Mohamed’s family, so I just cannot sit quietly and allow Mr. Rodrigues to tarnish, defame and hurt Mohamed’s family with his bag of lies.
I honestly believe that Mr. Rodrigues is looking for attention and publicity or is just jealous of the success and good reputation of the Mohamed’s family.
Sincerely,
Kadir Bacchus
