Dear Editor,
Kaieteur News – These three men are not suitable for the role of leader – opposition or otherwise. They have serious cognitive biases and misunderstandings of their political universe. The false sense of seniority or dues paid to society adds no value to their ability to lead a nation-state. This critique is solely on the mediocre measures of performance and effectiveness in roles they previously held. They could not keep them, to begin with, and made every error to improve Guyana. Yet, there is a sense of respect, reminiscent of the days before wokeness.
Guyana requires a strong opposition that can set agendas, while not having political power. Currently, the opposition only laments about what they can do when in power. People’s social and economic dispositions change regardless of who is in power. In Guyana’s unique case, an opposition must continually find ways to support their constituencies. This opposition hasn’t found any solution to problems currently affecting their constituents. There are several others in the PNC and APNU+AFC who can do better than the egocentric forerunners. Rather than promoting themselves, they toe the line behind these dinosaurs. Several females would easily help us to forget their blunders.
An effective opposition leader is one who is a friend to the incumbent. One who understands high and low power distances, yet can affect or influence change. The value of those changes to citizens and their perceptions of who is responsible is the political game. These three just do not play and lives are impacted. Irrespective of who wins, the vision is easy to keep them from the government. Wrong choices. No diversity.

(Kaieteur News) – I rarely talk about what comes out of the White House, the Dept. of Justice, and the US, in general.
