The accomplishments of the Agriculture Minister must be applauded

May 03, 2024 Letters

Dear Editor,

It is my pleasure to pen this short letter to express my humblest opinion, moreso to “give Jack he jacket”. As a proud Guyanese with an avid interest in the progress of this country and a long-standing supporter of the work done by the People’s Progressive Party/Civic, I took particular interest in the work done by Minister of Agriculture Zulfikar Mustapha.

The minister has always shown how hardworking and committed he is, whether it is in his family life or work related. These attributed compounded with the discipline to “get the job done” has done him well. I recall during his time as Regional Chairman in Region 6 many years ago, he did his utmost to see development take place with whatever resources made available to him at that time. Make no mistake, you will always see criticism creeping its way in some way or the other but this did not deter him from executing his duties fairly. He has brought that very attitude while performing the duties of Minister of Agriculture.

I am always attending meetings when he is in Berbice and whenever I do attend, farmers or residents are always satisfied at the conclusion of these very meetings. He listens, he provides solutions, he ensures that the needs of the people are met, if not immediately, in the near future.

You may call me what you wish but I will not suppress my opinions. I have chosen this medium to do so because I have seen the Minister come under heavy scrutiny lately but these are people that refuse to see the bigger picture, these are people who believe that they can do better but really cannot, these are people that find pleasure in highlighting the bad, these are people that are actually looking to score points. It is not constructive criticism. All cannot be perfect when it comes to governing, the Minister is one man tasked with a million and one responsibilities, he is human too.

At least you cannot say he is sitting in his office, enjoying the benefits and not working for the people, it is etched in his DNA to get up and go! I cannot ask for a better man to serve our people!

Yours sincerely,

Osborne Collymore
