Not strange that Kaieteur News missed salient points

IT is not strange or unusual for Kaieteur news to miss the salient points in the no-confidence motion against Regional Chairman Clement Corlette at the February 16 statutory meeting of the Regional Democratic Council (RDC) Region Four. In Adam Harris’ column of Sunday, February 28, he mentioned,                
‘’When he tried to have him sacked the courts ruled against him and his cohorts made a big splash in the pages of the newspapers. It became a political thing.’’

Corlette’s Court action sought to challenge the ‘’authority’’ of the Regional Executive Officer in carrying out activities of the Region without his instructions, prior approval and or endorsement.  The case established a clear misunderstanding on Corlette’s part of the separation of powers that should guide his specific role, functions and responsibilities.

There have been numerous occasions, too many, on which Councillors charged that the Regional Chairman was acting outside of the laws, misguiding the Council and usurping the functions of officers of the region, out of pure ignorance.

Adam Harris is the Editor-in-Chief of Kaieteur news and has had long, deep and abiding association with the PNC as is evident in his newspapers constant anti- PPP offerings to the Guyanese public. So you see where the Kaieteur news bias emanates from.

The ‘Corlettes’ of this world would be dearer to the heart of the ‘Adams’ with their dictatorial, autocratic style leadership as Adam has become accustomed to during his reign in the PNC Administration as a propagandist.

We must NOT confuse the issues here, the REO’s matter which is engaging the attention of the police through the Auditor-General’s intervention based on the instruction of Minister Kellawan Lall is entirely different from Corlette not understanding the boundaries of his authority.

It is this misunderstanding as persistent as it were that has brought us to greater realization that Corlette is at loss as to what his role, functions and responsibilities are otherwise he would not have asked the Court to intervene in a matter that has brought about much embarrassment over his inability to interpret the laws.

Obviously, ignorance of such magnitude, his consistent misdirection, the consequent degeneration of relations and retrogression of progress at region Four are enough to identify Corlette with poor leadership capabilities.  What’s next Adam?
