Now that the AFC has been silent in speaking out against the recent racist statement by PNC finance critic Carl Greendige in parliament in which he declared that subsidy to Guysuco which employs over 90 percent Indo Guyanese is a government problem, Indo Guyanese must be enraged and speak out against the demonic statement by Carl Greenidge.
It must be noted that the previous PPP administration subsidized MILLIONS of taxpayers dollars to residents of Linden. We do not see the PNC calling for cuts to the subsidy for the residents of Lindens but see it fit to make a racist comment about subsidy to Guysuco.
Let us be reminded that it was Carl Greenidge together with dictator Burnham deliberately banned foodstuff consumed mainly by Indo Guyanese in a further attempt to demoralize them. Items like Dhall, Wheat Flour, Potatoes, Sardines, Cooking Oil, Ghee used in daily worship, Onion, Garlic, and a list that can fill this post were banned and Indo Guyanese beaten and jailed if they tried to smuggle them across borders.
Unless you carried a PNC membership card, you were not allowed to purchase basic food items.
Suriname became a lifeline to Guyana as Indo Guyanese risked their lives trying to feed their families. These actions of Carl Greenidge must not be forgotten. Guyana became a basket case economy under Carl Greenidge.
Today Carl Greenidge as been resurrected and is now fully supported by the PNC and AFC who present him as a expert in economic matters. This man has ZERO credibility. The AFC and PNC are working arm in arm to bring back the PNC and Carl Greenidge from the gutter.
Indo Guyanese must speak out now. Especially those who fled the PNC led Burnham and Hoyte dictatorship. Failing do so will have history repeating itself. AFC silence regarding the racist statement by Carl Greenidge is very troubling. Speak out now.
