Greenidge, you hypocrite!

REVELATIONS lately in the press are worrisome! I shudder at the audacity of Carl Greenidge’s closeted act of obvious corruption as a Minister of Finance. Imagine this man stands up and says nothing he did as Minister of Finance was flagged by corrupt or suspicious actions or lacked accountability.Yet as the sitting Minister of Finance, he bought a house owned by the government, controlled and owned Guyana Stores Limited just when we were headed into elections in 1992! He says that all the due processes were followed. So, I dare ask: Which processes is he referring to?
Does Mr. Greenidge seek to insult the intelligence of us voting people? He yells at the top of his voice that others are corrupt, and their acquisition of wealth is due to corrupt and non-transparent practices. But yet in none of his recent ramblings did he ever prove that his “house” was purchased pursuant to an advertising process or public tender. His answer was that he was living there before. What a lie!

He sits on his weekly pulpit of the Kaieteur News and essentially says that no supporter of the PPP is honest and hardworking, because their prosperity was the result of corrupt and non-transparent processes. Yet if someone were to accuse him of owning and driving a Hollywood-style US millionaire car, he is offended because he claims that his fortune was the result of his hard work. Such hypocrisy!
