Sand brukking de very road dem using it pon!
Dem Boys Seh…
Kaieteur News- Dem boys seh Guyana turn sand kingdom. Sand fuh days! Sand fuh weeks! Sand fuh build house, build school, build hospital, build even de new parliament. But guess wha bruk up de road dem carrying de sand pon? De same sand!
De East Bank Public Road crying out like it get beat with sandbag. Every big truck carrying mountain of sand pun it back like it climbing Everest. De weight suh heavy, dem asphalt cracking like biscuit. Dem boys seh dem nah paving road no more, dem patching it like granny old drawers—every week a new patch, every month a new hole.
And guess wha mek it worse? Is de same road dem bringing sand fuh fix! So sand bruk up de road, and dem use more sand to patch de hole wha de sand truck mek. That is like using rum fuh cure hangover. De cycle nah ending—sand bruk up road, bruk-up road need more sand, more sand need more truck, more truck bruk up de road again!
Dem boys seh this madness only could happen in a place where logic tek vacation. You ever hear bout conveyor belt fuh bauxite? Or barge pun river? Or maybe even pipeline? Nah man, not here! Dem planners seh truck is king. And not just any truck—truck big like hotel, engine louder than open-air concert, and tyres fuh crush coconut tree.
Dem boys seh we need new plan. Not patch plan. Not more-road plan. Not spend-until-it-bruk plan. We need sense plan. Use river, use rail, use brain!
But you tell dem planners dat, and dem gon tell you is “development.” Well, if development mean bruk-up road, dusty face, and twenty-hour traffic jam behind sand truck, then we develop till we drop!
Dem boys seh if we keep pun this path, one day de sand truck gon fall in one dem same hole it create. And dat gon be de only time de road finally get peace!
Sand come, road bruk. Sand go, road bruk. But planners still sleepin’ on soft mattress, not pun de bruk-up road!
Talk half. Leff half!
