OPPOSITION Leader Bharrat Jagdeo Wednesday chastised his PPP Parliamentarian Nigel Dharamlall for ranting on his Facebook page about President David Granger.Jagdeo, during a press conference at his party’s Freedom House headquarters, Wednesday said he had received a number of calls about Dharamlall’s Facebook comments.
“I looked at the comments and find them unacceptable, in fact reprehensible. I believe of being critical of the President – the opposition in the past has criticised each other, but it should never get personal,” Jagdeo said.

He said the coalition government can be addressed on issues, but this can be done without being disrespectful.
“I have spoken to Mr Dharamlall. He said to me that he recognised that the language was not befitting a Member of Parliament and he apologised to everyone for it and he has expressed contrition to me that there will be no repetition of this sort,” Jagdeo stated.
Jagdeo said the PPP/C could deal with venality, duplicity and incompetence by using language that is not hateful or personal.
On one of his posts, adding President Granger, Dharamlall stated: “Even though I didn’t support your party you have still been LUCKY to be installed as President of Guyana by GECOM. Since then though, your Brainlessness has been in Overdrive. Everything that comes out of your Mouth makes you sound foolish… I’m worried that people are thinking that you are a Dud… You are our President… get rid of Ramjattan…get rid of the criminals…get rid of the thieves…in and out of Government.”

  1. FREEDOM of speech is NOT allowed in Guyana ANYMORE…Since when the government controls the MEDIA…This is so pathetic…and we call our selves a democratic country…He did not make racist comments…He made a comments about performance which happens to be TRUE! So the government cannot handle the facts?
