Executive member of the small Alliance for Change (AFC) and PPP deflect Moses Nagamootoo was taken by surprise in Parliament Friday night after he was found lying to the house about whether or not he voted in favour of the Former President’s Pension and other Benefits Act back in 2009, while a member of the ruling People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C).
Nagamootoo during the debate on a bill to repeal the former president’s benefits said while an executive of the incumbent PPP, he had rejected the bill which he said was extravagant.
Nagamootoo also claimed that when the bill was debated and voted on in the Parliament on April 30, 2009, he did not vote in favour.
But attorney General Anil Nandlall, who was a PPP/C back-bencher at that time challenged Nagamootoo and said he had evidence the now AFC executive voted for the bill.
Nandlall presenting the Hansard (Transcript of the sitting of the National Assembly) of April 30, 2009 read the voting pattern which showed that Nagamootoo indeed voted for the 2009 Former President’s Benefits and Other Facilities Bill.
Nagamootoo was taken by surprise and could not explain why he lied to the house.
He was laughed at by both members of the government and opposition, even as he denied the details of the hansard.

The man Moses Nagamootoo said at the Parliamentary Caucus at Freedom House in 2009 he asked for a Conscience VOTE and they denied him that right since his personal preference was this benefits package was not right in a donkey kart economy.
His barometer on whether he wanted to vote for it was, would Dr. Cheddi Jagan want this?
THE ANSWER IS CLEARLY NO!
AGAINST his personal wishes AND his consciousness he was FORCE to vote along party line in keeping with the desire of the majority who sat at the meeting.
He said the vote for that scandalous PRESIDENTIAL BENEFITS PACKAGE
"RATTLED HIS SOUL.
How does that constitute untruth?

It is clear you chose not to read my comments above.
Did I say that Cde Moses Nagamootoo did not vote for the BILL in 2009?
But as usually you are programmed to say the same thing over and over.
I humbly advise SIR:
Sit a few minutes, read my comments, understand what I am say and if you do not understand, seek clarification.
If you do not agree please present an alternative position.
Isn't that the way it ought to be on any blog?
I think Jagdeo's package is a bit too much though any former head of state should enjoy a good retirement.

Dem Boys Seh… KAITEUR NEWS
Dem had big argument in Parliament de other day. De opposition seh that Jagdeo pension and benefits too big. Dem in de government seh that it just right.
Jagdeo got unlimited security guards, but de opposition seh that dem must have a limit.
De Jagdeo Bill mean that he could got how much car he want, and dem didn’t have any limit to he light bill, he water bill, he phone bill and all dem things that poor people got to pay.
But what really get de government people vex was when de parliament seh that if a president getting all that money and if he continue to wuk then de money must cut.
Well Donald seh that he ain’t signing de new Bill. Dem boys want know if he suh greedy because dem never see he as a man like that.
But Jagdeo didn’t have dem scruples. De same parliament send other Bills to he fuh sign and he refuse or he tek he own sweet time.
But as soon as de Pension Bill fuh he benefits reach he desk he sign. In fact, de boys seh that he sign even before de office assistant lef de office.
He was planning a benefits bill fuh Brazzy too and one fuh Bar Bee but Ah Kneel tek too long fuh do de draft. If he did wuk fast all de Bees woulda enjoy a benefits Bill and poor people woulda stay poor.
None of dem don’t need a pension. Dem got more money than dem can spend in five lifetime and dem same people don’t even pay people what li’l pension dem deserve.
Imagine dem other people in parliament does only get $20 fuh pay all dem Bills. But as dem old people seh “Moon does run till day ketch it.”
Imagine a sports reporter from de Waterfalls paper run and lef a writ that de Demerara Cricket Board was sending to de paper. De man claim how dem want serve a writ. Well dem boys seh that he had a chance to run, even if it was fuh nutten. Dem got people who ain’t suh lucky. Talk half and wait fuh de backlash.

........................................................................................................
So he conveniently forgot that he had voted in 2009 for the bill.
On the other hand the benefits are indeed too extravagant for a former president of a poor nation.
When faced with new information intelligent change their mind. Only the dunce and soupatunists refuse to change.
I see:
India claimed that soldiers from Pakistan crossed the line of control in Kashmir and killed two Indian soldiers, beheading one. Pakistan denied the allegation. The region has been a flashpoint between the two countries since independence in 1947.
Bhai, Keep this one SAFE and SOUND. WE may need it again.

I agree Alena but the Hoodlums in the Opposition are behaving like Al Queda. They way to do such thing is to sit down and renegotiate the Benefits NOT go ahead and pull the plug so to speak. The Opposition would do good in Afghanistan, Bihar and such places.
All Guyanese politicians are crooks, especially the lawyers. Liars, thieves and all around scoundrels. Ramjattan and Gerhard, both soupies under the PPP only found a conscience when their supply of soup was cut off. Nagamootoo is pretty much the same.
iS mOSES THE NEW uRKLE?? dID i DO THAT??

Is nehru the new class clown on GNI?

This scum bag is shameless, he should step down immediately, i wonder how those AFC soup drinkers here feels about this scum of the earth nagga.
It's simply amazing. Just because a man stepped away from a crooked party he's labelled scum, hahahahahaaa. Go ahead, if that's what it takes to be a scum,then I'm proud to say that I am also one and so are many.

GOVERNMENT Members of Parliament at yesterday’s sitting of the National Assembly deemed the Former Presidents (Benefit and Other Facilities) Bill as being vindictive. The Bill No. 29 of 2012, which was read for the second time by A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) MP, Carl Greenidge, seeks to repeal the former bill of 2009. |
His pension should not exceed 2/3 of the higher of his last two years wages. Plus the banna tief nuff nuff already to be afforded gravy on top of that.

Speaker to probe “lying” report by online news outfit
Speaker of the House, Raphael Trotman, is probing reports of unfair reporting by an online news outfit on Friday night, during a sitting of the National Assembly. Moses Nagamootoo, Parliamentarian for the Alliance For Change (AFC), accused Inewsgy.com, an anonymous online news site reportedly with close links to government, of breaching the privileges of the House. He complained to the Speaker. The report accused him of lying during the debate on an opposition-tabled Bill to slash the benefits of former Presidents.
Inews said that Nagamootoo lied when he said that he did not vote in 2009 when the Bill allowing the benefits was passed in the previous Parliament. Nagamootoo said that he admitted that he had voted for the Bill in 2009, but this is a far cry from lying as Inews was saying.
He said that according to the privileges of the House, the reporting must be fair, balanced and contemporaneous.
It was neither fair nor balanced and the media outfit may have lost its immunity.
It is not known who the operators of Inews are although sources are indicating that the website is managed by a team from the state owned news agencies and a number of others closely aligned to government.
Minister of Legal Affairs, Attorney General, Anil Nandlall, during the session on Friday produced Parliamentary records that Nagamootoo did vote. The Parliamentarian had said during his presentation that even if he did back the Bill in 2009, that situation has changed now.
According to the Speaker, he has seen the report and was concerned; it did not reflect what went on in the National Assembly.
It was the same “outfit”, the Speaker said, that sought to “malign” him two weeks ago. “I have ideas…to the origins of the outfit.”
The Speaker said he will be raising the issue with the Clerk of the Assembly, Sherlock Isaacs. “I will not permit anyone to make such a ridiculous, lying statement of any member. I will be speaking to the Clerk about a possible course of action.” The Speaker said that he has spoken about the issue just a few days ago.
The original report by Inews was sent out but was later corrected with the word “lying” being taken out. The Opposition, which controls the National Assembly by a one-seat majority, has been complaining about biased reporting from the state media. APNU has presented a report where the Government Information Agency (GINA) consistently was slanted towards government. Last year, the Opposition voted to slash GINA and NCN’s budget.
