Nagamootoo pledges no AFC pre-election alliance with APNU against PPP

 

Alliance For Change, Presidential hopeful, Moses Nagamootoo, publicly expressed yesterday that his party will not enter a pre-election alliance with the A Partnership for National Unity. But he gave commitments that his party will work along with the APNU against the interests of the Government. 

Political pundits have long speculated on a possible alliance between the two parties against the People’s Progressive Party/Civic Administration. This was evident by the various attempts to β€˜gang up’ against the Government in and out of the National Assembly.
Since the results of the 2011 general elections, the combined political Opposition, who controlled a one-seat majority in the National Assembly, have worked hand in hand against the interests of the elected Government and people of Guyana.
The combined Opposition have successfully cut billions of dollars from budgetary allocations for every year since they held a one seat majority in the National Assembly.
Projects which have fallen jeopardy to this informal coalition include the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) expansion, the Amaila Falls Hydroelectricity Project which would have seen Guyana making significant strides in the energy and manufacturing sectors respectively.
Similarly, the combined Opposition have blocked funding for a number of Government programmes including the $1B Amerindian Development Fund (ADF) and $450M for loan subventions to University of Guyana students.
The most recent actions by the Finance Minister, Dr. Ashni Singh in restoring sections of the budget from the contingency fund had incurred the wrath of the combined Opposition.
Although the move by Dr. Singh is provided for in the Guyana Constitution as well as the 2003 Fiscal Management and Accountability Act, the combined Opposition have threatened to put him before the Privileges Committee and have since threatened to pass a No Confidence Motion against the Guyana Government.
This move would see the end of the 10th Parliament and throwing the nation into early general elections. President Donald Ramotar, operating within his powers, has since suspended the National Assembly in hope that the APNU-AFC combined Opposition will engage the Government in talks on the way forward.
Those talks have since been abandoned by the combined Opposition who are adamant that no talks would commence without the lifting of the suspension of the 10th Parliament.

This man is getting more senile by the day. Isn't this what his minority party was/is doing since 2011? What else is new with him besides losing his memory?

 

Skelly,

 

Crab dwag Moses is now losing his mind given the fact that the AFC cannot even organize a protest due to a lack of support.

 

The AFC is finished.

 

Looks like Granger no longer wants Moses to piggyback on his party.

Moses is trying to be conspicuous during this stressful priod(for Moses). You will see more of his articles in KN. Who knows, he might be performing at the circus.

The entire AFC party is a circus led by clowns like Moses.

The AFC notes with alarm the shameless and illegal campaigns of the Ramotar-led PPP to create ethnic and geographical apartheid in Guyana.

 

In the County of Berbice, the PPP has been stirring anti-African fears, conjuring up the so-called Black jumbie, to scare Indians and to woo them away from AFC. Berbice is no longer the fiefdom of the PPP. When they voted AFC in 2011, Berbicians declared their freedom from racist domination. Berbice will not retreat. Never!

 

Today’s Guyana Times, a pro-PPP rag which also prints Mirror, the PPP’s broadsheet, simply confirmed what we knew all the time: PPP leaders have been talking to AFC supporters in Berbice, and peddling the racist, false and mischievous propaganda that the AFC has joined up with PNC.

 

In their racist frenzy, the PPP has unleashed its worse character attacks against AFC’s Leader, Khemraj Ramjattan, Regional Parliamentarian Dr. Veerasammy Ramayya and myself, to hide the fact that it is Ramotar and the PPP who are now on their knees, begging Granger to talk or cut a deal with them. We repeat our position: AFC has not agreed to form a pre-electoral coalition with APNU. But we have decided to work with APNU and all other patriotic political, business, labour, religious, human rights, women, youth and other civil society organizations in a broad front to fight against the PPP minority regime for the restoration of parliamentary democracy in Guyana.

 

The AFC is a genuine β€œAlliance” movement, and we favour unity and cooperation to isolate and defeat this wicked and corrupt PPP junta.

 

The AFC wishes to say that the law is clear: any person or organization that stirs up racial hatred is guilty of a criminal offense, and we call on the Guyana Elections Commission and the Guyana Police Force to mount an investigation into our claims of the PPP’s resort to racism and racial hatred in Berbice.

 

What is more disturbing, according to the self-annointed β€œbeacon of truth”, is that both the President and the Prime Minister have been involved in partisan activities to re-capture lost votes in Berbice, in much the same way as serfs were sought after in Nikolai Gogol’s epic novel, β€œDead Souls”.

 

It was reported that almost weekly these prime functionaries of State have been talking to AFC supporters to woo them back to the ruling party, obviously a partisan activity at state’s expense.

 

In addition, we have seen the President in repeat jaunts to places like Paramakatoi where the organizers would greet him with PPP as distinct from our National Flags.

 

This is an abuse of presidential privilege, which must be condemned by the people in much the same way that Roger Luncheon is allowed to hide behind a public service post, to spew party propaganda and to regularly malign opposition parties.

 

All other Government Ministers and Advisors have dominated the state media purely for PPP propaganda effects, to the total exclusion of the opposition parties.

 

This is the only country in the Caribbean and the Commonwealth where opposition parties are not allowed on public media and are even denied paid programme time on state television.

 

But the β€œparamountcy of the party” is an adopted Stalinist disease, which the PPP has copied from Burnham. The PPP, however, surpassed Burnham as it has put its stamp not only on the state and crony media, but on the foreign service, permanent secretary and on regional executive positions.

 

Permanent Secretaries and REOs, such as Hydar Ally, Omar Sharieff, Nigel Dharamlall, Colin Croal and Ronald Harsawak are all sitting PPP Central Committee Members.

 

 

The PPP is in a frenzy to re-capture at least two regional seats, and they have chosen Region 6 and Region 8 as their hunting grounds.

 

They are using state resources in an attempt to bribe potential voters, but their bottom house meetings in Essequibo and Berbice have shown that the PPP is despised and rejected, and no amount of bribe, cajoling and co-chaaring, would stop the PPP ship from sinking at coming elections.

 

AFC warns however that the racist campaign of the PPP would further undermine the social fabric of our nation, and excite racial insecurity and fear throughout Guyana.

 

Today, Guyana is at the crossroad of definition, whether we are only formally democratic, or descending swiftly into a racist, autocratic, authoritarian state.

This is what was said that was distorted by that yellow propagandist rag:

 

"We repeat our position: AFC has not agreed to form a pre-electoral coalition with APNU. But we have decided to work with APNU and all other patriotic political, business, labour, religious, human rights, women, youth and other civil society organizations in a broad front to fight against the PPP minority regime for the restoration of parliamentary democracy in Guyana."

 

They cannot open their mouths before the dissimulation is forced to begin. The PPP is viscous vindictive and nasty. They cannot hel[p being that way because they do not have a record of good works to run on so their praxis becomes obfuscation, distortion, out right lies garnished with ostentatious flourishes of ad hominem attacks. And the only one who believes it are maleducated dunces like you.

yuji, look at the kind of language you use against an AFC leader, but when I opined that Ramotar is a twit alongside Sir Shridath Ramphal, you were offended.

You have not expressed an opinion there in your sentence highlighted in blue. You've made a straight declarative statement on what Berbicians will do to Mr Nagamootoo.

Yugi does ingest cow dung as part of his ritual in his worship of the cow.

I stand firmly by what I said and I have clearly expressed my opinion. It is subject to interpretation.

Jalil, why the PPP so afraid of the Patriotic Coalition for Democracy under a team of Nagamootoo and Granger?
