THE AFC+APNU coalition can no longer deny that they are solely responsible for inciting the current spate of vandalism that is directed at the PPP/C election paraphernalia.

So far, this has been restricted to poster and billboards; but on 16th April, 2015, the Coalition’s National Candidate and AFC’s Executive member Mark Ross made an extremely bold declaration of incitement when he called upon AFC+APNU supporters ‘to collect the PPP/C ‘T’ Shirt and burn it’. This is the first time I am hearing this type of campaign strategy by a political party and it clearly shows the desperation of these people and the length that they will go to get votes. This ‘brass-faced’ inciter should know that what he has said is a criminal offence and he should immediately resign as a national candidate for the AFC. He is a national disgrace and an even bigger disgrace to his Party and his family and himself. But what this neophyte politician needs to understand is that T-Shirts do not vote! Posters do not vote! Billboards do not vote! People vote!
Only a few weeks back this man had made a death wish for the President and his entire entourage who were visiting Lethem. He said that he wished that it was they who had died in a tragic accident. Mark Ross then made a public apology and blamed it on his mental state of mind at the time. Now again he has done the unthinkable. I do think that this man needs a psychiatric evaluation to ascertain his state of mind and his qualification to hold any public office. The same should be done for his counterpart, Ramayya.
But this just exposed the type of people who wants to run this country, their low level of mentality and their lack of respect of their fellow Guyanese who have a different view from their own. This exhortation by Mark Ross will only serve to emphasise the fact that the AFC+APNU coalition has already been consumed by the Burnham Touch. Everything they touch will be transformed into excrement. But even Burnham had some shame; he never commanded his followers to destroy the paraphernalia of the PPP. He did it secretly. But this new generation of the PNC appears to be worse! So voters beware!
I have the DVD with this incitement to vandalism by Mark Ross and I need for GEOCOM to investigate this matter, since this type of behaviour is in clear violation of the code of conduct set out by that body.
Moreover, Ramayya continues to incite racial hatred between Indo-Guyanese and Afro-Guyanese; yet until now, nothing has been done to stop this racist and his racial incitement. This has been going on since Valentine’s Day this year. This same type of racial incitement was used by a Corporal of Police on residents of Chesney Village and I do believe that this type of incitement will soon develop into serious racial confrontations.
The AFC knows that they will never be able to deliver on the 11% Indian vote, so they are desperately attacking the Indians, hoping that they will facilitate the delivery of the 11% votes to the PNC.
The Indians have already spoken and their paucity at the AFC meetings has strongly indicated this. The ‘dead meat’ prognostication by Ramjattan is being fulfilled!
