Backer, acolytes should go rejuvenate and cleanse themselves of unethical, corrupt and vote-thieving past

DEBORAH Backer has done it again.  This time she has branded me a “Nuts and Bolt man”.  She has gone so far as to accuse me of “micro management”. These accusations are not new to ministers of the PPP/C Administration.  And so long as the PNC remains in the Opposition so it will be.

The more PNC MPs open their loud mouths, the more I am convinced that Guyana will become a  “paradise lost”  if they are ever to regain the seat of power (sic?)   We only have to cast our minds back to the 1964  to 1991 period to assess their track record in Government.  Will Granger and his acolytes do better?  Hardly likely, just look at their behaviour with their one-seat majority in the National Assembly and make your own assessment.  As a matter of fact, just look at how they run the Georgetown municipality and ask yourself:  if they can’t run a municipality how can they run a Government?

The loud mouths in the PNC have convinced themselves that only they can administer our country’s security sector.  That is why they are not approving a single Bill that is laid in the National Assembly to bring improvements to the security sector under the PPP/C Administration.
It is not about Clement Rohee, it is about the Manhattan-size  ego of Granger and his ilk.

Having dug themselves into a hole they find it hard to extricate themselves from that very hole, lest they bring shame onto themselves.  Backer screams and shouts about: “setting policies and dealing with the bigger issues”.  How  laughable!  Do they really want to listen to policies and bigger issues with respect to the security sector?  No way!  Who do they think they are fooling?

As far as Granger and his merry band are concerned, only under the PNC will the security sector improve.  They have all the answers!  They know it all!

Regrettably, there is no one in the PPP/C who supports either the APNU or the AFC.   So Rohee or no Rohee, both the AFC and APNU will have to await a change of Government to get their way with the security sector.  Moreover, Rohee or no Rohee at the Ministry of Home Affairs, the PNC will never change its stripes; they have never found acceptable any PPP/C Minister of Home Affairs.  In fact, they have never found the PPP/C an acceptable Government.  And that’s the bottom line.

Instead of worrying over Rohee, Backer and her backers should pay attention to what Henry Jeffrey wrote in his  Future Notes on June 19, 2013 where he said:

“……..the APNU has not been able to transmit an acceptable vision of the future, and its political antics have left many confused……”

With all their loud mouths and bad mouthing, the PNC has never told the Nation what is their vision for the security sector in Guyana.  But the question is do they have one?
Moreover, the Stabroek News in its Editorial of Sunday, June 23, 2012 had this to say about Backer’s Party.

“Although now in Opposition for two decades, the PNC has failed to take the opportunity to rejuvenate itself or move in to secure ethical grounds with an acknowledgement, at least of its fraudulent past……”

I would therefore recommend to D. Backer, instead of getting hot and bothered about me, that she along with her acolytes go rejuvenate and  cleanse themselves of their unethical, corrupt and vote thieving past or  be condemned to the rubbish bin of history which, according to Mr. V. Alexander, will happen because “the political leadership does not seem to be listening enough”.

Oh! And about that “bolts and nuts” gaffe, D. Backer may want to ponder on this:

“She’s (not Backer) got a lot of good general ideas…the basics, but when it comes to the bolts and nuts of getting something done she is no good!!”
