DEAR EDITOR,
I stand ready to defend our great land as a Guyanese. In condemning the decree made by the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicholas Maduro, on January 7, 2021, which seeks to illegally lay claim to Guyana’s Essequibo territory. I wish to urge that as Guyanese we must all come together.
I urge all leaders to meet and address this worrisome, economic and mentally challenging matter, which can affect all Guyanese. The challenge and claim to our land is serious and troubling for the Guyanese public. I note that the President of Guyana, Irfaan Ali, continues to hold on to the belief that he will not engage with the APNU+AFC Opposition. Meanwhile, Guyana’s Private Sector, Bar Association and the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce remains silent among heads of other organisations, Churches, Masjids and Mandirs remain silent on the matter of the President of Guyana and the Leader of the APNU+AFC Opposition Meeting or engaging in any conversation to put Guyana first.
If no other time, this is the perfect opportunity for all of Guyana to unite for the good of the nation.
I wish to remind all Guyanese that we are open and vulnerable when there is war and the devastation of war includes violence, trauma, poverty and disease that can set this country back millions of dollars in development for many years ahead. The scars of war, along with national and political division, have unspeakable ravages to the fabric of nation building. History will not view leaders in Guyana kindly when we look back on our silence to act.
I believe that spite, racial hate and venom should not supersede the life, livelihood and safety of all Guyanese.
Guyanese, we have to rise above our petty grievances and Party affiliation to encourage our leaders and heads of organisations both local and international to forget vile hatred of one another and put our country first. I firmly believe that to become one force for a credible fight unity is required.
I stand ready to defend our great land as a Guyanese. Let’s unite together in defence of our sovereignty.
Incredible things can be done simply if we are committed to making them happen.
Pt. Ubraj Narine
But for that American presence
Listen to the man that is throwing Guyanese bright future away
