The President commended the Principal of the vocational centre, Desmond Saul, for his hard work in ensuring that the youth of Victoria Village benefit from skills training. The Head of State called for emphasis to be placed on youth not in employment, education or training (NEET).
Further, Granger also committed to assisting the school with solar panels. He reminded that Victoria Village is regarded widely as Guyana’s first coastland village and that education, next to economic liberation, was the greatest gift freed slaves received.
“Villages, collectively, should bear and share responsibility for the education of children because the most important thing, apart from family, is the education of the child.

The residents of Victoria Village should ask him why he doesn't follow his own advise instead of gravitating only to old people who have long passed their age of usefulness.
What a great remarks from a President identifying one race “ African “ in providing education and family values. A foundation that uses religion ‘ Christianity “ to built peace and love.
Note the colour of the building “green “ same colour as the Coalition parties as well as all government ministries.
The village next door, had a mosque that was bomb by Blacks in the 60s ... a few years ago, a collie man from Enmore rebuild that mosque from scratch with his own finances for the residence who are 99 percent blacks, no identity was given as to what race should empower themselves.
What a way to go Mr care taker President.
“African-Guyanese embraced education as a means of providing a better life for themselves, their families and future generations. They supported the establishment of social institutions for education and religious instruction, including by providing lands for building churches and schools,” the President said.

In April 1840 Buxton Village was established on the East Coast, Demerara,British Guiana by 128 Africans who had been freed from chattel slavery on August 1st, 1838. The Africans pooled their money and bought a 500-acre plantation, New Orange Nassau from its owner James Archibald Holmes, for $50,000. They named the village Buxton in honour of abolitionist Thomas Fowell Buxton. Buxton was the second village established by Africans in British Guiana.
Victoria Village, also on the East Coast of Demerara was purchased in November 1839, by a group of 83 formerly enslaved Africans.

Based on whose arguments. There is a well known narrative that former slaved acquired failed plantations and built villages. There is also another narrative that the colonial entities taxed them heavily and refused to provide drainage, and flooded out these villages, then refused to sell additional lands as the need for this was necessitated. Indians did NOT go through this abuse.
So sit down, shut your swine mouth and learn something!

In fact the authorities did take the land away from them and wanted them to FAIL. Your lot were given well drained lands in land settlement schemes.

Victoria used to have a lot of Indos and Portuguese living there. In the 1964 riots every single one of them was driven out. Many of their homes and businesses burned to the ground. There was the Sayroo family who had a huge bakery. Giving food to many who couldn’t afford to buy. Today they have survived and built another Sayroo bakery in Tampa, Fl. The ashes of their home left far behind in Victoria.

Your story is not correct. I personally asked Sayroo about your story the last time you mentioned it. He said that you’re full of shyte.

Can you elaborate where or when coolies were given land? Post some facts like Dyango like how the Buxton and Victoria were obtain by blacks for cash. I can show of copies transport, leases and grant of all of more than 800 acres of my grandfather properties that was pass down to this current generation. None of it was "given"..
He use to tell us as kids how he started out with a bull cart and transport sea shells from the sea bank to build railway embankment. He eventually made enough money and bought a dump truck, burn clay bricks heap and supply not only rail but the public road at the time was red brick road. I am sure many here can tell their own success stories that does not include Government hand out.
If you know of any hand outs you are welcome to post it..

What authorities take land from Africa. Some Africa’s sold their land to Indians and Burnham took the land away and give to blacks. It was Desmond Hoyte who instructed Col Chabby to have the land return to Indos.

Why worry with what people like Cribby say? They are grossly irrelevant. With all their pontifications, they can't bring themselves to doing the decent thing of insisting that the PNC for once obey the law the way all civilized people do.

I was never a member of any political party in Guyana. I'm not like you and Uncle DG kissin PNC ass fuh lil wuk. So you runnin back home to the PPP this time around in a last ditch effort to get lil ministuh wuk? Yuh really desperate bhai, especially with oil money lying around. Miss Ivy is a serial liar like a few others here. Always making up some Anansi story and scandalizing people name. What is there to be gained from telling lies on a nondescript internet site? The last time she mentioned this, I was in Sayroo's bakery shortly afterwards. He told me that none of their property was ever burned. They moved to Enmore but it had nothing to do with a loss of property. The only thing he said that was burned was probably a few cheese rolls he left too long in the oven.
Oh rass man, leave the woman alone yeh, wuh happen, you never heard people mix up burning cheese roll in a oven with bun down a whole building? Is a lil error.
Cheese Roll eh. I wasn’t born in the sixties, but I recall early 80s, cheese was a scarce item. I never see cheese roll at the Saroo bakery.

Not only was cheese scarce in the early 80's but so was butter, flour, oil, gasoline, cooking gas, peas, and the list of scarce and unavailable commodities go on endlessly. Heck even things that Guyana produced like rice, sugar, fruits and vegetables were scarce. PNC boastful record that they are repeating now.

I would have believed Mars if he had said the end of the buns, ( called scraps) which we would buy in plastic bags and have it with milk.

You don't believe that Sayroo's bakery was baking cheese rolls in the 60's because there was a shortage of cheese in the 80's. Do you understand how stupid of an argument that is? You do realize that there is a 20 year difference between the 60's and the 80's and there was an abundance of cheese in Guyana during the 60's? The man still makes a good cheese roll today. In any case, I know what Mr. Sayroo told me and I'd believe him any day over Bibi who's known to be a compulsive liar. She didn't even challenge what I said because she knows that she was caught in a lie. She posted in this thread afterwards and ran away with her tail between her legs without even a little whimper.
Anyone know Sterling Products was making "Cheese" ? now what so difficult for producing that product in Guyana ? seems folks always thinks foreign products are better so banana republics becomes importers.
Cheese is made from milk and although Guyana had cows that produced milk, even milk was scarce in the early 80's. Another boastful record of the PNC.
Cheese was scarce unless you had contacts in KSI or was a PNC somebody. I collected a 5 lb slab every month from my KSI buddy! But I openly supported Liberator. I also got 25 lb wheat flour, but that was a different story!
