DEAR SIR,
After reading Chetram Singh’s feeble response to the paid advertisement carried in the Kaieteur News of 17 June 2011, I am of the opinion that the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) should be thoroughly investigated, especially in the wake of the FIFA corruption scandal and the very serious allegations of financial impropriety within the GCB.
It is incumbent for persons in charge of an organization, especially those that deal with large amounts of monies, to ensure absolute integrity in relation to the financial affairs of that organization. The public would expect no less. An investigation into the affairs of the GCB must be a prerequisite to the holding of elections so that the incoming Executive could take over a sanitized Board and finances that could withstand the severest of scrutiny.
There seems to be an indecent haste in relation to the holding of the elections. This is tantamount to the hijacking of the election process.
Also, with Chetram Singh not seeking reelection he would probably be absolved of any wrongdoing which may be subsequently unearthed.
Guyana cricket needs to emerge from the sunken pit in which it finds itself so that we can once again hold pride of place in West Indies cricket.

Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
