STATMENT BY Roy Beepat
Reflection, you can vote out corruption, you can’t vote out Dictatorship.
40 years ago I was forced out of Guyana by the Burnham regime , I left my friends and family to restart my life in a new and different environment , I never held this against my fellow Guyanese, although one race was disadvantaged, I knew then, as I do now that this was a handful of corrupt and ambitious persons, devoid of integrity, moral fiber or morality and who operated on pure greed and self interest, these persons have no empathy for the masses most of who are hoodwinked into believing the propaganda being spoon fed to them , some who won’t even care if they were cheating the system and their fellow Guyanese , these people will scheme , plot and plan to steal your democratic rights without any moral regard to the devastating effects it will have on the majority of the people this is the main reason we have our sons and daughters of this land living in foreign places with some of their children not even knowing their heritage , the end results will be the same, mass suffering of the poor and disadvantage, affecting the very same people who are supporting this corruption if the system, more voting by the feet by Guyanese to escape all over again, so that a few corrupt persons can enjoy the spoils of our Country.
It seems with yesterday Thursday 26th March declaration by Harmon that they will allow the recount , ONLY in the form of a election Petition, what good this will do in a Dictatorship is beyond me , that they intend to have Justice Holder allow Gecom to swear in Granger on fraudulent results, this die was cast since the rejection of the Gecom list, the fake COI to get rid of Seelall, and the unilateral appointment of the Chancellor and Chief Justice, the rejection of suitably qualified Gecom staff , and finally the appointment of the disgraceful Claudette Singh, doesn’t anyone find it strange that the CJ can recluse Navindra Singh Injunction Motion and handle the case herself but allows Justice Holder to hear this case , what is the difference and where is the consistency ?
We are in for a ride, possibly air and sea embargo’s, shortages of medicine and other commodities, we will become worst than Venezuela overnight, such a different scenario that what promised to be the start of our time to shine , we are right back where we were 40 years ago !
