Too much ethnic hatred are being played out with the nomination of GECOM Chairman,Jagdeo padded the list with many of the people that supports the PPP from the inception,what was his motive ?? my view is he disrespected the whole process.
I do not disagree. There was some amount of grandstanding from the PPP. That's why I am not surprised by the outcome because politics in Guyana is like child's play. However, I am floored by the choice of a dead man to run one of the most demanding Commission in Guyana.
The idea of the Opposition proposing the list is to ensure they do select one who they can trust and who has the appropriate credentials to be honest ( not as a judge as Granger suggested).
Any list making is a preferential process. Granger was obliged to select from the best of these. He could have protested if the list was too partial to the PPP.
He did not. He simply delayed the process months on end and them made a unilateral judgement of one who is a PNC ideologue. He has corrupted the process.
The head of GECOM is the protector of our democracy. He is the last person standing between a trustworthy system and a rigged one. Granger chose to follow the path that leaves the system suspect since he primed it for the possibility of a rigging.
