DEAR EDITOR,
Is there a plan to terminate competent Afro-Guyanese workers at the Ministry of Agriculture? Termination letters are being prepared for staff with impeccable background and who have served Agriculture well over the years going back to when PPP was in office. Is race a factor in the planned termination? The targeted workers have refused to be part of a corrupt agenda that demands bribes from contractors. Is that the main reason for the planned termination? Will it be proven that there is more evil at the Ministry than we already know?
When the APNU was in office, competent Indo-Guyanese workers were terminated at the Ministry. Is there a tit for tat? When will ethnic recriminations and remonstrations end? There must never be room for racism in our rainbow nation. Is there something more than ethnicity behind the planned termination? Is the fear of the workers exposing corruption the rationale behind terminating them?
How can we move the nation forward by targeting people on account of ethnicity or requiring them to participate in corruption? How can we victimize them if they resist corruption?
The Ministry is urged to re-think plan to terminate workers regardless of ethnicity.
Yours truly,
Shawn S. Williams
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
