Singh needs to get his facts right

YOU recently (June 13) published an ‘analysis’ by Rickey Singh, where he discussed questions for current and previous Presidents. It is good to have a variety of opinions, but at least we should get the truth as the base of the expressed opinions.In his column, Rickey Singh states that “Yet, neither has committed himself to WRITING the other even a single letter/note for a meeting to DISCUSS ideas and approaches for a different and better future for Guyana.” This is a total lie. Hon. Joe Harmon has written the PPP since the May 11 elections about the need to move forward in the context of a national unity governance structure, which obviously has to be a step-by-step process.

Secondly, Rickey Singh referenced the priorities of the Rodney Commission of Inquiry in the workplan of the Attorney-General. Indeed, it needs to be a priority, especially because of the expenditures on the Commission which fails all tests of cost-benefit. This Commission
of Inquiry was a political ploy of the PPP, and never fundamentally focused on getting to the truth about what happened to Walter Rodney.
I write this as a former member of the WPA, in the days when Walter Rodney was alive.
