No amount of damage control can save the AFC, that political gathering is finished, Moses is such a lair and has been exposed on so many occasions.He even started that Dr.Jagan told him that he would be that next Presidential Candidate....it turned out that was a lie!!!!!
Moses is a Lair!!!!!
I don't doubt that.
I am a liar. Mitwah is a liar. Granger is a liar. Ramotar is a liar. Who on earth isn't a liar?
You're not a liar too, Conscience? I dare you to say NO.
I don't know whether or not Moses lied by saying what Dr Jagan purportedly told him.
What I know is that Moses Nagamootoo and Ralph Ramkarran were the most suitable presidential candidates than Bharrat Jagdeo and Donald Ramotar.
What I know is that Janet Jagan made a colossal mistake when she catapulted Jagdeo into the presidency.
What I know is that in 2011 Ramotar with Jagdeo's connivance usurped the presidency from Ramkarran particularly.
Ralph could have made an excellent president. He should have stayed on and fight his battle internally.
I appreciate your point, yuji, but that is easier said than done.
Ralph didn't leave the PPP on a whim.
Since 1999, when Janet Jagan bypassed Ralph and selected Jagdeo as her successor, Ralph was fighting his battles internally, using the available party mechanisms like the Central Committee and the Executive Committee. The harder Ralph fought, the more opponents he attracted because Jagdeo was buying CC members one by one with super-salaried positions at OP, his cabinet and the ministries.
In 2011, there were 5 nominations for PPP presidential candidate --- Ralph, Moses, Donald, Rohee and Gail.
Moses withdrew from the process, saying it was flawed and undemocratic. He wanted a special party congress to make the choice.
Ralph stayed in the race.
It was crystal clear that Jagdeo really wanted Ramotar to be president and was pushing him with all the means at his disposal. Jagdeo took Donald with him abroad on official trips. When Moses pointed out that Donald was not a government official, Jagdeo gave Donald an advisory position at OP with fat salary.
Then Jagdeo started calling Party Exco meetings at OP instead of the traditional venue, Freedom House. Ralph opposed that move. Jagdeo went ahead and 14 out of the 15 Exco members agreed on Donald, with Gail and Rohee staying in the race for show.
On the Day of Decision, held at Freedom House, Gail and Rohee withdrew their nomination, leaving the "contest" to Donald and Ralph.
As most of the 35 CC members were under Jagdeo's thumb, they appealed to Ralph to withdraw in favor of Donald. At that stage it was pointless to fight.
After that, it was more than pointless to stay in the PPP and fight for changes. Democratic centralism and Machiavellianism are a toxic mix.
As a decent person, Ralph couldn't stay in the Jagdeo-controlled PPP.
