It’s sad when a person uses his entire political life to cuss up, degrade, pull down, wash hands clean, fight for a better country to be out of the hands of the polluted opposition party that holds office for 23 years and just in a matter of minutes reverses all that he did and said in his political career to ensure all that he stood for falls into the hands of the same opposition.
It can be considered in Guyanese terms, “feed da maga dag and one day, he gon turn round and bite yuh”.
This is the case of the former MP Charrandass Persaud.
This is a man of double or should I say triple standards (saying no standards won’t be appropriate because he does have some kind of standard), says one thing, means a different thing and then does another thing, un-focused as to what should be said and done.
This man was given an MP position/job because he was recommended by a former MP in Region 6 and mostly because of his vicious attacks on the then government, the PPP. This man implored to all, especially Berbicians not to allow the PPP back in power and that the PPP are the ones that destroyed the sugar, rice industries and the nation at large. This is the said man who told the then President Bharrat Jagdeo that he will never get his vote no matter what. This is the same man who told the thousands of sugar workers and rice farmers that PPP is no good for Guyana.
This gentleman makes me and many others rethink and recall the sad story of one man that makes hundreds or thousands and the world believe in him. He will sit at the same place or table and eat meals together; he will walk the walk and talk the talk with and for them, he will ensure they are happy and he does everything within his powers to make all happy. No one knows what his plans were at that time. Then one day, he decided to execute his plan and went ahead killing his followers. No not Judas. It’s Jim Jones.
This No Confidence story (YES YES YES) has a or some similar resemblance, except for the killing; the voter betrayed an entire nation and ensured that he has done what he had in mind.
Berbicians, especially the Indo Guyanese who are strong PPP supporters and whom the PPP claims they have transport over as long they are alive, used to cuss down this very Charrandass Persaud since he became a politician under the AFC.
This man used to tell the said people of Berbice that they can cuss him how much they wanted to because he will fight for the removal of the PPP from the government. This man also told the nation that after the APNU+AFC government won, he doesn’t care if he is not given a position with the government, he will never ever join the PPP, he will end his political life/career rather than join PPP.
A lot is not being known of this very MP who now cries and preaches that he cares about the welfare and wellbeing of the people, especially the sugar workers and their families of this country.
This very man is the man who sometime in March 2018 was calling for the sugar workers in Berbice to be jailed for not sending their children to school. This is the very man who told the nation at the last budget debate that sugar workers are better off now under this APNU+AFC government and receiving their severance pay is better than all the time they work in the estates and that most of them are being re-employed with the said estate.
This former MP who now cries foul as if he cares for the people of Guyana and Berbice has failed Berbicians miserably over the almost three and half years he was in Parliament.
This former MP did nothing during his tenure to better the lives of the people in Berbice. He never walked the streets of his own village and asked the residents their problems or saw what was affecting them. He never once tried to better or develop any community within Canje or Berbice.
This is the very man who goes from mandir to mandir in Guyana chanting and worshipping God yet uses the same place of worship overseas to lie to the people for his act.
In Parliament, the said night the man told reporters that he have no friend in the PPP, but yet was seen escorted out by a member of PPP after his yes vote.
I call on all the coalition supporters and members to stay strong because one man can’t speak for a nation and let’s continue to be calm and focus on ensuring that the works continue in taking Guyana positively forward into a bright future under this APNU+AFC Government.
Let’s stand and stay strong as we support this coalition government and look out for the wolves in sheep’s clothing. They may be some amongst us.
