Firstly let me take this opportunity to wish you a Happy New Year.
Welcome aboard Sase and best wishes in the New year---may you enjoy the best of health.
To our debate:
In your answer to another blogger you mentions that "don't be surprised to see Nigel and Trotty putting the royal screw on poor Moses..."
Politics will always have intrigues and political maneuverings but to say the above is being very economical with the truth.
Wasn't Moses led to believe last year the AFC would nominate him as speaker ? Well, Trotty ended up as speaker! What happened ? Looks like Moses was royally screwed---Trotty and Granger worked out a deal behind Moses' back. Right now Moses' name is being tossed around as the AFC's presidential candidate in the next election---Moses shouldn't get his hopes up too high---he'll likely be screwed again.
If you know a GOOD human being like Nigel Hughes you would know that your thoughts are misplaced.
Maybe!
But let us pretend you are CORRECT? What would be the reaction of the ordinary Guyanese voters to the reality if your wish comes through?
What do you mean by ordinary Guyanese voters ?
Listen! Moses has been around for decades and is well loved and respected by many Indo Guyanese, particularly Berbicians.
Now, If Moses were to be the AFC's presidential candidate and if Ramotar's PPP is still perceived to be complacent and corrupt when the next election rolls around, then clearly Moses will add 5 to 10% to the 10.3% Ramjattan received---and that could spell trouble for the PPP holding onto the presidency.
On the other hand, if Nigel and Trotty were to plunge the knife in Moses' back and deny him the opportunity to be the AFC's presidential candidate---then that would doom the AFC---they'll be history.
