IT seems as if veteran politician Moses Nagamootoo is now embarking on a comical career. The man has already proved that he was a PPP (People’s Progressive Party) die-hard only because he envied leadership. His goal was the presidency of Guyana. Now that opportunistic nature is being quelled. He has nowhere to go. Nagamootoo’s sophistry is just too childish. The less he says the better for him.
First, Moses Nagamootoo is in a world of delusion. He deceives himself! Or is he just a liar? Maybe imbecility is enveloping him?
On principle, if he is what he claims to be (a principled person), why then did he not stand up to APNU (A Partnership for National Unity)? I think I have the explanation.
The perfect raison d’être says that in allowing Raphael Trotman to become Speaker of the House is one that would have allowed for Moses himself to be the Speaker.
Readers get this please!
Trotman is former PNCR (People’s National Congress Reform) and currently, he seems to be a clandestine supporter. So how can he be trusted?
I mean, since David Granger opposed Nagamootoo because, ipso facto, the defecting may very well be a ‘spy job’ in the making, then what exempts Trotman from that kind of suspicion (from the rest of the lot)?
Mr. Nagamootoo, what principle are you talking about? You and Trotman are in the same cesspool.
By way of further explanation, if this is the qualifying principle David Granger is using (former connection), then Moses Nagamootoo has failed his people. He was bullied into supporting APNU’s racist agenda of putting a ‘black man’ in the chairs of Speaker and Deputy Speaker.
So in Nagamootoo’s case, he is not only a traitor (PPP) but a chicken (APNU).
Look how stupid all this sounds: Nagamootoo’s opining that he willingly put aside his interest, in becoming Speaker, because the principle was greater than the personality. Really?
So I do proffer a different opinion.
Now I think that Nagamootoo is in a state of embarrassment and disappointment. APNU has no trust in and respect for him, and there was no way Khemraj Ramjattan would have really stuck up for him.
Nagamootoo somehow or the other used to think that he was the heir apparent within the PPP/C. When this did not materialise, he defected. He got great support for this move, but from whom and why? Now the question is why those who backed his defection did not even offer a word for his being the Speaker?
In many ways, I feel sorry for Nagamootoo. I hope that being ‘boxed in’ now, he will endure to the end. This may give him that false feeling of sincerity.
