Once again, but not surprising, Guyana’s media professionalism has

taken another severe dent.
That  well-known publishing house, the Kaieteur News, that has established a dark reputation for misrepresentation and misinformation, unparalleled anywhere, has committed another act of slander against the persons of two outstanding, eminent  gentlemen of international repute – former President Dr Bharrat Jagdeo, and Mr. Erik Solheim, former Minister of the Environment and International Development of Norway.
There can be no excuse on the part of this daily tabloid for  this latest act, which is absolutely deliberate, spiteful, and driven by sinister motives of anti-nationalism. Led by what is now an openly, clear  political agenda, for itself, and on behalf of the political opposition, this publishing house is definitely the chief media lead in its quest of trying to denigrate all the great work that the PPP/C government would have done, since 1993.
In seeking to achieve this dark objective, it has been targeting personalities within the executive, on a regular basis. Its favoured target has been  the  former President Jagdeo, whose stewardship as President, has seen Guyana become the economic  envy of its CARICOM  member states; an outstanding  model for climate preservation, in addition to its established reputation as a  state with  a stable economy, with  a record of unbroken, sustained economic growth for the past seven years.
Any media house ought to be lauding any  government for such significant achievements. But not the Kaieteur News, which numerous,  distorted attempts, of national development programmes, have been exposed for what they are – DANGEROUS LIES!
Any media, that ascribes slanderous lies to the person of a former president, especially,  is indeed horribly dangerous in its intent. But when such is extended to the person of a former high-ranking cabinet minister of a foreign government, it is absolutely malicious and grossly disrespectful!
It underlines the desperation of that print in its bid of attempting to   undermine the credibility of the state and its government.
The irony of this media house’s treacherous lies, is that both these distinguished persons have combined, not only to  establish Guyana as a model  centre  of climate change services, for which the country is being monetarily rewarded via the GRIFF; but also in the process, of  making the world a safer place, from the threat of  climate excesses, for its  future generations.
Finally, the Kaieteur News must be reminded again, that when the proper history of  Guyana will be written, Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo will be majestically represented as a President, whose unselfish and tireless efforts were honourably, readily  and dutifully carried out, for and on behalf of his people,  thus bringing about the monumental, qualitative life changes that have made Guyana proud as a nation; Guyanese, proud of their homeland once again; and admiration from the international community.
An unqualified  apology must be demanded from the  Kaieteur News.
