Time for heads in the Coalition Govt. to roll
Dear Editor,
After a mere 18 months, elements within the present Coalition government have made the PPP crooks look like amateurs. I want to unreservedly say that the “Fourth Estate” in Guyana could have been more forthright during the PPP years and brought them to book long before 2015. Guyana would have been better off for it.
However, my compliments to Kaieteur News at this stage (and I have heard lots from many others who sing the praises of Kaieteur News) recognise the speedy exposure of dishonest acts by Government Ministers and officials who are fast surpassing the “scampishness” of the PPP. The Norton affair, the GWI fiasco, the Harmon episode which still has the true story to be exposed, the Deputy CEO matter at the GPHC, etc., etc., must be brought to the people. The time for ethnic/party sympathies has ended. This is our country. Those who want to steal from the people are enemies of the people and of this nation.
I urge that the same vehemence with which you probed and exposed the wrong-doings of the PPP regime must also be employed as regards this administration. If the President wants to defend acts which are so palpably wrong and injurious to Guyana, then he must be held accountable. After all, he promised to stamp out corruption at all levels. Or are his Ministers and senior functionaries exceptions? It is time for heads to roll, both within the APNU and the AFC! Guyanese expect it! Guyanese demand it!
