Opposition

Leader visits Linden, gets warm welcome

…as residents raise issues and concerns affecting them

Former President, now Opposition Leader Dr Bharrat Jagdeo visited Linden in Region 10 (Upper Demerara-Berbice) on Wednesday where he, and his team, met informally with residents, many of whom raised issues and concerns affecting them, their community and the country as a whole.

The Opposition Leader met residents informally in the streets, markets, shops, etc, during a walkabout of the mining town. He also addressed residents as a group and listened to their concerns, giving them the opportunity of having their voices heard.

Accompanying the Opposition Leader were former Minister Robeson Benn and People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) Member of Parliament, Nigel Dharamlall, among others.

Below are a few scenes of Jagdeo’s visit to Linden, captured by Inews photographer Carl Croker:

Major game changer.  PPP got Linden next election.  All man is suffering in Guyana now.  Bread and butter issues will rule the game.

Bibi,

The AFC/PNC cannot stop a popular President. People can now compare Jagdeo's great economic times to salt water and salt bread under the AFC/PNC.

Jagdeo will bring the PPP it's biggest victory if he decides to run again.

Brother Gil has correctly pointed out AFC/PNC insecurities.

Go President Jagdeo go !!!!! AFC/PNC No mo !!!!

Look hug up and kiss up and all vote for Granger.

Why would they vote for him?  They remember the callous way that he sold Guymine, leaving 80% of the bauxite workers on the breadlines, and then his crony Ramotar had them shot in cold blood.

Every election you all scream that and every election this doesn't happen, then you all wail "dem blackman ungrateful".

Please explain how Linden's economy benefitted under the PPP.  Show how employment levels increased.

The woman looks like she is screaming "why is this odious man trying to kidnap me".

I love it how the PPP tries to pretend as if black people like them.  They need to look at the election results and cease thinking that taking pictures of random people being polite, or assembling the few score PPP blacks means that they have broad based popularity.

The PPP lost because Linden turned out in record numbers in 2015.

Really. After the new owners of Guymine dismissed 80% of the bauxite workers what industry replaced them.  I do recall that Lindeners complained bitterly of slave treatment by the Chinese in the timber industry.

Linden is the only place in Guyana where residents benefit from subsidies.  All implemented under the PPP.

Carib is not for a united Guyana. He is all about suppressing the Indians or any other group that pose an electoral threat to the African Guyanese.

Like what.  Their cheap light bills. So if they have no jobs how does that help?

Tell you what. Shut down Guysuco. Fire the sugar workers, but give them cheap electricity.  You and the rest of your clan will scream "black man a kill ahbe".

Jagdeo said

1. The PPP is a coolie people party.

2. The PPP supporters are rural Indians.

3. He wants to take back Guyana for us, this when speaking in front of PPP supporters.

4. He sued Kissoon who called him an institutional racist. Kissoon and Nigel Hughes were able to prove that he was. Jagdeo withdrew the law suit.

5. During the last local government elections Jagdeo boasted that he only campaigned in Indian areas and ignored campaigning in majority black areas.

6. Jagdeo ABANDONED Linden and did NOTHING to encourage the development of employment opportunities for displaced workers, 80% of those who had worked for Guymine having lost their jobs.

7.  Very few  top positions were held by blacks, outside of the armed forces, under the PPP and when this fact was shown the PPP could NOT deny this or explain this.

 

Now describe how this makes Jagdeo about unity. Jagdeo is like the old white slave masters. He views unity solely in terms of violating black bodies.  Look at that woman and ask if she is voluntarily hugging him. He passed by and snatched her for a photo opp and she is shocked.

The PPP government funnelled most the lotto funds to Linden, built a modern hospital, and helped them so many other ways. Linden still produces bauxite.

1.  A PPP contractor got that award and hired PPP supporters. Lindeners complained bitterly that they couldn't get work on that project. They subsequently complained about problems with that hospital.

2. I guess sickened by malnutrition and stress arising from unemployment, this hospital was needed.

Now discuss what the PPP did to inject new employment opportunities into Linden.  They sold Guymine knowing full well that the new owners would fire most of the workers.

Note that the PPP objects to Guysuco being privatized because they know full well that this means that thousands will lose their jobs.

And by the time the PNC shuts down many estates there will still be sugar produced yet you all will still scream that estate closures are motivated solely by an intent to punish Indians.

Your lies like Burnham's ,if believed will only lead your people and all other peoples in greater misery. Your list of unsubstantiated charges is a stark reminder of the lies that Burnham spread in the sixties and seventies to divide our peoples and turned beautiful Guyana into a basket case. The PPP needs to fire up its propaganda machinery to deal demagogues like you who are hell-bent of securing power for group over the others. Our peoples need peace and progress in democratic setting . You are a grave threat to the future of Guyana.

I see that you didn't answer the comments that I made about Jagdeo. He in fact did make those statements. The Chronicle, when it was under PPP control did write the type of filth about blacks that would normally be found in a KKK type paper. 

Did the PPP apologize to blacks and order a more truthful editorial about the contributions of Afro Guyanese to Guyana?  NO! In fact the editorial summarizes all the assorted racist statements made on GNI by the Indo KKK element.  These tempered only by the fact that I am here and will bash in the face of anyone who dares to do that.

You can propagandize all you wish but blacks in Guyana knew what they had to endure under the PPP and turned out in record numbers in 2015 to rid Guyana of them.

Now run off and take some more pictures of random polite blacks to fool yourself that the PPP loves them.  PPP supporters might be stupid. Black people aren't.  They criticize Granger and definitely criticize Jagdeo.

And here we go. Any Indian who tells the truth of PPP/Indian racism is slapped with that label. 

What is interesting is that when Rodney and others addressed African racism they remained well respected among the Afro Guyanese community.

When an Indian attempts to deal with Indian racism he becomes a pariah and yet those who treat them this way will wail about national unity.

Their idea of national unity is domination of the 60% (and growing) of Guyanese who aren't Indian by a tiny cabal of Indian oligarchs who also exploit the majority of Indians who aren't part of their clique.

Jagdeo said

1. The PPP is a coolie people party.

Liar, Jagdeo has clearly refuted this accusation. He never said this. In fact he was referring to Harmon's directive to supporter to throw out the "collie people". It was in fact the PNC who referred to the PPP as a collie people party.

Former President, Bharrat Jagdeo has clarified certain remarks he made at the memorial ceremony in honour of Founder of the PPP, Dr Cheddi Jagan, held at Babu John on March 08.

At a press conference on Tuesday at Freedom House, Jagdeo made it clear that he never referred to People’s Progressive Party (PPP) as a “coolie people” party as was reported in a local daily newspaper today.

The former President reiterated what he said at the event, which is: The Opposition consistently shout about the racism of the PPP but they practice racism. They whisper campaigns. In the last elections they went to some of the Afro villages and beat some drums at six in the morning and say let us throw out these coolie people. Get up and go out and vote. Throw out the coolie people. That’s the kind of language they use. Anybody from our Party who uses that sort of language we’ll kick them out.

Jagdeo committed to fighting the issue of racism and noted that he has no apology for raising it at the Babu John event. He maintained that the Opposition may want to embark on a “whisper campaign” during elections as it relates to inciting racism, as he opined that it is the only tool they have.

“I’m not a coolie, so I take offence at someone saying let’s throw these people, out, let’s throw these coolie people out. So when I want to fight that, you’re saying its evidence of some divisiveness, it is the same thing like if somebody says the N word about Afro Guyanese,” the former President told a packed room of journalists.

According to Jagdeo, the Opposition will try to make wild accusations because they want to hide from their track record.

“They know what took place in the Opposition at the last election…they know that people were deployed and [Joseph] Harmon knows this too. That they were deployed to go to some villages and beat the drums, it happened in South and to go to homes and say let’s throw out these coolie people.”

Jagdeo reiterated his commitment to continue fighting racism in Guyana.

“I am a son of this soil and I will fight racism every single day. I made it clear at Babu John that this country cannot develop if its benefits are only felt by one group of people.”

The former President debunked reports that he raised the issue of race in subtle manner in order to appeal to traditional PPP supporters.

“I am proud of what I did, raising the issue…I raised the issue and I said let’s fight it to a PPP crowd. I am proud of that

That blue shirt must smell sour tarassss. Yall should take up a collection and buy your hero a nice shirt aright. Is like the man tight tight with the $$$ he tief.

What derass BJ saying about talking at Babu John, that banna is a lieman. The guy told the crowd the blacks gonna knock drum and come rape their pickney, now he trying fo say he's against racism. Leh he cy e rass daside yeh.
