WE, as Guyanese citizens, have once again become the victims of deceitful two-faced politicians who tend to change their faces to hide their true identity whenever they would need the support of the humble Guyanese citizens. 

Once they get our support, they tend to turn their backs immediately on us and our well- being. I personally think that these actions are shameful and degrading.
Over the years, one of the main issues that Guyanese have been facing throughout the city was the excessive build-up and non-removal of garbage, which is one of the main reasons for numerous diseases that have threatened the lives of Guyanese over the years, and one of the main causes of the continuous flooding that we are seeing throughout our City.
Do these threats that the Guyanese people are facing have a solution? Yes, they do, and although the responsibilities of solving these environmental problems lie in the hands of the Mayor and City Council, their attitude towards doing so has been unsympathetic, although the Government has constantly assisted them by presenting to them the necessary funds that they need to carry out these tasks.
Over the past week, we have continued to witness the unprincipled actions of the Mayor and his councillors, whether it was he refusing to comply with the Government in aiding to work as a team to get the city cleaned up, or it was the fact that he decided to leave an important meeting that was kept to find solutions for the garbage problems in Guyana. These devious actions by the Mayor have once again shown a great deal of his character, as they did in the past.
Having a friendly environment is not just necessary, it is a must have, because it is something that can prevent a lot of viruses and diseases from affecting ourselves and our kids.
