Dear Editor,
So, Mr. Jermaine Figueira has maintained his new position to defend his new friends in high places. This explains his theory that the burden of proof in with the accuser. If, as I suspect, he maybe referring to the large acreages acquired by his new idol, then with the clouds of secrecy over the land, and the fear of officers in the many government ministries and agencies to speak up, then according to him the matter has already reached a dead-end.
I make two comments first; should not some person concerned about the integrity of our country utilise the office of the Ombudsman. Second; I am hoping to find the time to go for a literary prize, my bit of literature, or let us say “fiction writing”, will be titled Ally-Bhar-Rat and the Four Thieves, with apologies to 18th century Arabic folk tale Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.
Respectfully,
Nigel Bacchus
