APNU is not up to the task of removing the PPP from office
DEAR EDITOR,
Escalation in peaceful street protest, even though a reasonable strategy, against an unyielding and dictatorial PPP is not enough to meet APNU’s objectives of winning the next elections. APNU’s performance over the last two years under Mr. David Granger is what really matters if they are ever going to triumph.
If we are to review the performance of APNU under the leadership of Mr. Granger, it is at best chaotic, and thus the outcome will have unintended consequences. Yes! There are episodes of hope based on the actions of leaders like Joseph Harmon, Carl Greenidge and Ronald Bulkan, but three MPs cannot do the work assigned to 26 MPs by the people.
Our question to Mr. Granger is: Where are the other MPs? Are they paid only to fill the seats in Parliament and eat lavishly the most expensive food at the taxpayers’ expense? They have not done anything of substance in Parliament other than making speeches once a year during the budget debate? Is this what the people elected them to do?
It is important for the people to understand that APNU is the PNC. The reality is that APNU is just a sham of nine paper political parties, with only the PNC having real members by the thousands. The WPA today is a shop-front party that continues to live off of its historical past and on the shoulders of the late historian, Dr. Walter Rodney. Like the other eight one-man parties in the coalition, it does not have the support to win a parliamentary seat. So stop the masquerading and the denial that APNU is made up of nine coalition partners because no one is buying it. The command and control of the political machinery of APNU is principally the command and control structure of the PNC.
