READERS who have followed my newspaper presence for the 35 years would know I have confessed to harbouring hate for people who hide under their mother’s dress and attack real, living publicly known humans.
It is a moral ugliness that no newspaper should ever accept. I find such anonymous people utterly unfit to be part of society.

I could tolerate a writer using a pseudonym to write of the specificity of social occurrences. It could be foreign trade, foreign policy, fiscal policy, the medical system, police behaviour, etc…. But for a newspaper to have someone for 25 years doing a daily column in which actual people who are known in society are morally disparaged and openly abused is an egregious descent into uncivilised chasms.

I know what it is like to be the recipient of the stuff that comes from people with such mental miasma. Anonymous writers have been attacking me since I first started to pen newspaper columns. It hasn’t stopped. At one time, the Peeping Tom column in the Kaieteur News had an obsession with me.

I would never submit myself to the indignity of replying to such nameless and faceless people. Any legitimate human that wants to ask me a question about any aspect of my life, I would answer, once you leave my family out of your equation. I have always strived to respond to queries directed at me. I feel I have an obligation to the people of Guyana who have interacted with me for over a long time to provide answers about my life.

I will continue to do so. My life in this country has been an open book. Mr. Norman Brown, of the PNC branch in London asked me in a social media interview to explain why I wrote so long for Kaieteur News and then, when the newspaper parted company with me I am criticising Mr. Glen Lall, its owner. He wasn’t interested in listening but was obsessed with berating me for my writings in support of the government.

Had he listened, he would have had my explanation and reasoning as to why I chose that pathway. My adumbration is logical, rational and philosophical with aspects that could open me to criticism but I will respond to those criticisms even if they are indefensible. Mr. Brown did not want to listen. I would explain my position any day to anyone once the person isn’t hiding under his mother’s dress.

I remember Mr. GHK Lall and the Stabroek News stated that they knew who helped to build my house and demanded that I go public with the information. I was prepared to do so, but I would never let anyone think they are superior to me by imposing conditions on me and I am helpless to retaliate.

I would be willing to answer their question once they engage openly in a debate with me in which my questions are also answered and no libel writs are filed for speaking the truth.
GHK Lall must elaborate on his own house and answer the myriad questions about his conduct as chairman of the Gold Board, and why, to this date, the government of the day has not officially investigated his tenure at the Gold Board.
Why did he offer in return to become the chairman of the board under the APNU+AFC government? I hope Mr. GHK Lall knows that libel writs prevent me from writing my memoir.

The Stabroek News (SN) could have the facts on my house and in turn I would ask my own questions which include what is the monthly income SN earns from state advertisements; what amount of shares the editor, Mr. Anand Persaud owns and those of Isabelle DeCaires. Who are the members of the SN board apart from Mr. Timothy Jonas? Explain why of the four dailies, only SN cannot be read freely online.

In the Sunday November 19th edition of Kaieteur News, Peeping Tom was at it again, attacking people and hiding under his mother’s dress. The reason I am commenting now on his output is the high role he places on the newspaper he writes for – the Kaieteur News.

The anonymous columnist urges the Kaieteur News not to attend Mr. Jagdeo’s weekly press conference because it is a forum for Mr. Jagdeo’s obsession with Kaieteur News.
What do you make on this eerie presence in journalism? Both the Kaieteur News and Peeping Tom have an obsession with Mr. Jagdeo. The sordid aspect of this obsession is that Mr. Jagdeo says what he has to say with the world watching him. Peeping Tom should say what he has to say with me, Mr. Jagdeo and the world looking at him.
