The election fear is on, and it will get worse given the release of a Caribbean poll that if there is a coalition, it will attract more votes than the PPP in the next general election. The trepidation was always there in Freedom House that the PPP’s support was declining because of migration and terrible governance. Always there too was the optimism of the Guyanese people that if the opposition forces can put on a grand rainbow coalition, the PPP will be consigned to the gutter of miasma, a substance that will become its main election weapon.
The release of the CADRES poll (Caribbean Development Research Services) that put the PPP as having less than fifty percent of the vote is bound to increase the paranoia level in Freedom House. What can we expect from this increased fear? The throwing around of more filth of course. It has started already. The champions of filth have focused their attention on public officials who, the champions of filth say, are not serving the public with the dedication and competence that they should. The champions of filth say that these public officers are behaving like monarchs and when they do so, the Government gets the blame.
This is nasty politics that the champions of filth have started their political campaign with. All Guyana and Guyanese in the Diaspora know that these little kings and queens were put in the public sector in the first place by the champions of filth themselves to create political and ethnic hegemony. They became little gods because they knew they were untouchable. It began under Cheddi Jagan’s presidency.
Vilifying customs officers that worked under the PNC, the Jagan Government removed them without due regards to law and trade union conventions and created an institution called the Fraud Squad. The Fraud Squad was an ethnic cauldron of corruption and arrogance – the exception being the fine work done by Malcolm Harripaul who was forced to resign. I went to President Cheddi Jagan himself about Harripaul’s dismissal. Jagan was unmoved because Harripaul wasn’t observing ethnic and party loyalties.
The Untouchables, Little Gods and Gargantuan Caesars increased exponentially under the Jagdeo presidency. They could do no wrong. The list will fill volumes. This writer wrote President Jagdeo a long document about the behaviour of a senior Ministry of Finance official and handed a copy to Robert Persaud.
I explained in that submission that this man is an extremist whose counterpart the PNC never produced when that party was in government. He simply had no idea about what etiquette and professional behaviour meant. This very gentleman was investigated by the Guyana Revenue Authority and found to have signed more (MORE) than fifty bogus duty free letters. This was in 2004. He’s still on the job.
The champions of filth are nasty, dirty people to have started their election campaign trying to fool the Guyanese people that they are the upright ones and the little gods they put in the public sector are the ones not serving the nation the way they should.
The public will not be deceived and the champions of filth will have to move from feces to bullets to stop me from exposing their fetid habits and fecal nature. I want to tell them that I am not intimidated and I refuse to be silenced. I will travel the length and breadth of this lovely country with loving people to talk with them about these filth-throwing champions that are looking for scapegoats to win votes.
The poll is out. The champions of filth are unpopular. They have lost massive support. “Massive” is the right word to use, because according to Donald Ramotar, the PPP Government is a “massive coalition.” Coalition of what? Maybe of miasma and feces because that is what is going around, that is what is being pelted at the critics of the massive coalition government. So the poll is out and it tells an encouraging story.
Will the champions of filth throw more fecal substance at people like me? Or are they going to move to sticks, stones and bullets. Will feces be thrown at the pollster next time he is in Guyana? This is the season of viciousness as we see when the champions of filth began to pick on the lesser champions of filth that they put in the public sector to do their dirty work. Before I go, readers should know that my hair was a target for the filth thrower. I had to shampoo it three times each day then cut it. Is someone out there envious of my long hair because they don’t have any?
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
