Carol Green, the mother of the St. Stanislaus teacher whose decomposed body was discovered at Pattensen, East
Coast Demerara (ECD) more than three weeks after she went missing, is urging young women to be extremely careful when using private transportation.
The traumatized mother, who still cannot come to grips with the fact that her daughter, Nyozi Goodman is dead, said that she always believed that public transportation was safer when compared to private cars.
Mrs. Green’s daughter was last seen entering a car at the National Sports Hall where she had taken a few of her students to participate in a basketball game on July 6, last.
That was the last anyone heard from her.
On July 24, last, the skeletal remains of a woman, with a belt wrapped around one arm, was discovered in a grass-filled area at Pattensen.
It was only on December 10 last, that police announced that the results of DNA tests conducted on the remains of the body found in July confirmed it was the missing teacher, Nyozi Goodman.
Yesterday, a devastated Green said that most young people are leaving Linden and traveling to the city in search of better jobs while some attend the University of Guyana.
“Take the bus; do not trust private cars. You are always safe in a crowd, you are not 100 percent safe in a taxi,” Green said.
The mother revealed that instead of preparing for the Christmas holiday, she is planning her daughter’s funeral.
“I cannot come to grips with this. I still feel she will turn up one of these days… The bible said that children should bury their parents but I have to bury my child,” a distraught Green lamented.
“Girls, please be careful. There might be plenty more Royston Waldrond out there,” the teacher’s mother said.
Waldrond, an ex-policeman, was the prime suspect in the teacher’s disappearance. He was shot and killed on November 15, last, during a confrontation with the police in Kitty.
He was also a suspect in the disappearance of policewoman Patriena Nicholson, who went missing in August 2013.
“He is a prime suspect but we don’t know if he killed her and we may never know who killed her,” a devastated Green lamented.
Mrs. Green thanked those who supported her during her time of need.
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
