Attempts at political whitewashing and deflection

Dear Editor,
ANOTHER torrent of lies by PPP/C point man,Leslie Ramsammy, employing the use of sensational language designed to whip up public sentiment that will lead to public dissent against the A Party for National Unity+Alliance for Change (APNU+AFC) government. I refer to, Kaieteur News letter to the editor on May 11, 2018, “Political witch-hunt reinforces dictatorship; will haunt us for generations”.

His entire piffle is, again, dishonest for the many untruths that it seeks to convey. But it will only fool some of the people, those creatures of the distorted moral brand that have been created by the PPP/C culture of dishonesty, of which self-enrichment has been its most criminal example.

Ramsammy speaks of the “silent majority’’ that he claims should begin to raise their voices and protest against what he calls political witch-hunting and dictatorship. It is a political narrative of no consequential value, since it takes flight against the groundswell of factual evidence that has emerged in the form of audits which have exposed the avalanche of PPP/C criminality in this country.

There is no right thinking Guyanese who values their honesty and personal integrity that will doubt the rape of Guyana, as perpetrated by the clique of PPP/C criminal looters.

Neither can they refute the findings of the many audit exercises. If there is one significant recognition and expectation that arose from the mass of the Guyanese people during the last national and regional elections campaign, in every region, is that the nation’s assets have been plundered, and that those responsible ought to pay the penalty for such grand theft. It is a reasonable expectation that is now being fulfilled with the court arraignment.
What is wrong with such judicial action, Ramsammy?

What is witch-hunting in bringing those who deliberately set out to gouge the hard working Guyanese people, the same category who hypocrites like Ramsammy are now seeking through the use of subtle language to incite public protests?

Is it against the Laws of Guyana for those who have committed crimes, to not be prosecuted, irrespective of who they are, and their political affiliations? Is it not right that they be accorded the same procedural conditions which are faced by other similarly accused, who would have appeared in court for such similar offences?

Ramsammy has continued his desperation in seeking to create that which does not exist in Guyana: a political dictatorship. Therefore, his allegations that the charges brought against Brassington and Singh are of such a political mould is as asinine, as they are spurious, devious, misleading, and shamelessly dishonest, with the intention to deceive. For if by making those account for their crimes against the state, causes the State to be dictatorial, then the audits and the many findings are untrue, and the nation’s law are accommodative of such illegalities!

Is it not time that the Ramsammys of this nation understand that no amount of vicious lies; attempts at political sanitisation and whitewashing will ever hide the criminal fact of what 23 years of their party in Government would have done to this country? That it has denied the working class, for whom they have always pretended care and concern, better social facilities in the many communities which they live, and which they have now been receiving because of a change in government; that the much politically propagated house lot distribution has not delivered that dream home to over 28,000 of these allottees – and the latter has occurred while many of Ramsammy’s former cabinet colleagues and other high officials, occupy mansions in Pradoville One and Two, and in other upscale suburbs.

Editor, this is another example of a political party that continues to defend its sordid past of governance, through the moral distortion that it has created. And this latest compilation of lies, further explains why the PPP/C and its pack of dishonest and unconscionable leaders like Ramsammy could have broken all the laws of this country during their orgy of state criminal larceny.
Yours sincerely,
Earl Hamilton
