Soon-to-be illegal Govt clearly directing GECOM

Dear Editor,
The popular consensus right now is that the Government will become illegal after March 21, 2019. To fully make this proclamation, we need to understand how the “Government” derives legitimacy. The legitimacy of the Government is derived from us the people accepting their authority. The acceptance of this authority is based on being governed by the Constitution.
The three arms of Government remain separate so as to keep the authority of the Constitution in check. The National Assembly (Legislative) is designed to make the laws, whereas the Courts (Judicial) is there to interpret the laws, and the “Government” (Executive) is there to enforce the laws.
The People of Guyana voted for a legal and legitimate APNU/AFC Government. They expected the APNU/AFC to follow the Constitution, like they swore to do.
If the Government doesn’t enforce Article 106 of the Constitution, they will be violating their very mandate and they will be in breach of the Constitution, which mandates General and Regional Elections in three months after the No-Confidence Motion was passed.
President Granger should have announced a date for elections since the passing of the No-Confidence Motion, or, as he is only now saying, he should have asked GECOM for a work plan since December 22, 2018.
GECOM is a creature of the Constitution and with this in mind, everyone expected that GECOM would have started preparing for elections after the No-Confidence Motion was carried. On December 27, 2018, the Guyana Chronicle quoted GECOM’s Public Relations Officer as saying that GECOM would be ready to deliver elections. Now that story has changed. The soon to be illegal Government is clearly directing GECOM to any which way they want.
This soon to be illegal Government needs to accept that the Legislature has ruled, the High Court has ruled and the clock continues to tick.
Guyanese will not accept an illegal Government.

Sincerely,
Baldeo Mathura

I hope the PPP is contacting Int Fin Instutions, Investors, Banks,Caricom, CDB and others that the ILLEGAL Govt of Guyana CANNOT do any business and if they do, they will all be NULL and VOID!!!

Even the British High Commissioner insisted yesterday that the clock is ticking but I doubt the despotic PNC care. They will abide by their record and bully their way into their illegal government status.

Interesting, lets see what Jagdeo does next. Also, does PPP supporters in Guyana have the stomach and dedication for civil disobedience which is required to bring focus to PNC illegal rule?  Back in Hoyte's time, he had no problem rounding up hooligans to rob, kill, rape and burn to bring international attention.

They were speaking to BOTH parties.  They certainly did NOT insist that elections should be held on Thursday.  They said to work on a date and GECOM now says November.  The ball is now in Jagdeo's court.

Yes let Jagdeo look like a jackass insisting that elections should be held in 2 days when not even the PPP is ready.  Let him lead protests and threaten violence.

Clearly you are in cahoots with PNC/AFC in their delay tactics, holding on to power illegally. If the tables were turned would you be singing the same tune? What did you shout in 2015 when Granger was calling for sanctions?

And at least the PPP got time to select someone better that Irfaan as their Presidential Candidate.
