Justice delayed is justice denied

Dear Editor,

AS I pen this letter, we are days before election which is scheduled for Monday March 2, 2020. I am addressing this letter to the leader of the PNC+APNU Mr. David Granger not as President of Guyana but as leader of our party.

Comrade Granger, after four years 10 months in office your government, our government has returned dignity to our people, though we have not gained economically or financially during this period, we have revived the dignity of morality that was willfully denied our people for the 23 years of the PPP power in office, Jagdeo’s bullyism and dictatorship.
After the counting of the ballot of the 2015 elections and the results made known we felt that the chains of discrimination and degradation of the Jagdeo regime was something of the past. On that election morning of 2015 we rang the bells, we blew the horns, we made music with the empty tins and shouted, “get up prepare yourself and go out and vote”.
Mr. Granger we had a lot of unfinished business not addressed. Business of abuse and acts of great inhumane acts perpetrated on our people and five years after the perpetrators of those misdeeds are out of power, they and their henchmen are still walking free and they are so ‘cock sure’ and presumptuous that they can tell their supporters to “chase out a sitting Head of State” when he comes in their area, and Jagdeo’s people went so far as to attacked ministers at the Pegasus Hotel and continue their bullying attitude by blocking traffic at the Presidential Secretariat. David Granger, Leader of the PNC their acts were not done against you and your minister alone but were meted out on all of us who voted and still support the coalition.

We want justice for our people; we want justice for Yohance Douglas, Shaka Blair, Donna McKinnon, Courtney Crum-Ewing, Oliver Hinckson, Mark Benschop, Ronald Waddell, the army officer and his wife who were jailed by Jagdeo and his people. They were in power during these periods and least we forget the 400 plus black youths whose bodies kept popping up on the streets in the villages and those who were not found ended up in the alligator pond in the back of the Botanical Gardens.
Justice delayed is justice denied. No retreat no surrender. Onward to victory in March.

Regards,
George Williams
