We in Guyana are ‘One People’ and will forget our political differences in defence of our country

Dear Editor,
IN 1965, they saw it upon themselves to bomb Ankoka Island, an area owned by Guyana. On that island at the time was Oliver Hinckson Pereira (GDF). Also, there at the time of the assault was my younger brother, Keith Robin Williams. There was some dialogue relevant to that assault and I have been taught in school that my Guyana has 83,000 square miles. I feel that Venezuela ‘tie down’ my government and its inhabitants and they have again started their assault and, at the time of writing, they have kidnapped two boats and the fishermen stationed on those crafts.
I am 80 years of age (born 20th January, 1941) and I am prepared to don my uniform – pick up my tools in defence of my country and its populace. What Maduro do not realise is that in the present crisis, we in Guyana are ‘One People’ and will forget our political differences in defence of our country. I personally will at this time stand and defend my country and its government as we seek to have justice. Venezuela, ‘Not a blade of grass’ you will not pass.

Yours sincerely,
Murtland Williams
