The decision to rescind the OR Tambo award for President Forbes Burnham by President Jacob Zuma of South Africa
Guyanese have sat on their asses and allowed others to define their history for them. They spend enormous amounts of time on Facebook spewing bile and agonizing over who is trying to upstage or conspiring against them by creating similar groups etc. We write lengthy pseudo-intellectual articles and none will be recorded in the annals of history to defend our legacy and our great leaders and heroes.
America had presidents who were slave owners, and until recently some in congress were members of the Ku-Klux Klan and all of these have been labeled great men. Guyana had President Linden Forbes Sampson Burnham and we must not allow anyone to decide for us his level of greatness, he is ours and he has served our country and the world in very positive ways like no one else. Just like the American “greats,” President Burnham may have erred, but point to a man without fault and it is either you are lying or he was never born. Continue reading →
A tug boat owned by BK INDUSTRIES slammed into one of the Chinese-made Parika ferries mid-week crippling all services to Supenaam, Wakenaam, Leguan and Bartica.
Guyana’s barefoot consul-general to Spain and personal friend of both Presidents seems to be in a revengeful mode. Fake electronic transfers of euros….pisa…mullahs…. money and payments due to farmers seems to be at the heart of the problem that the police seems to be awaiting instructions while rotting food and starving small animals feature prominently. Stench from as far away as ten miles from each of the affected stellings fills the air. Underage passengers in cars seem to be having fun playing litty and gam while the adults beerbate and debate the wounds two men of questionable character lead the country into disaster after disaster…as if it is the national past time.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that the hole after the slam-bam impact was as big as a hangar for a two car garage or a kitchen on a rural house. Continue reading →

Two weeks…almost a fortnight after the sodomizing and gruesome killing of Baby Prince, 90 in the People’s Republic of Victoria delta the police has refused to look within the Indian communities for her alleged assailants. Good policing is oft times methodical but in Gt there is no method to the madness…. and laziness. In Gt is about ketching-a-packoo-and-bruck-he-neck.
Good policing also has to do with the same officers walking the beat day in and day out; knowing the language of the streets, the queens, princesses, princes and in-betweens. The Babylon must be part of the fabric and must trust and be trusted, and getting to know their customers and provide intelligence that they can take to court. The PPP has allowed the inter and intra relationships between people and police to be transactional; pay something to get something. In this case…justice. Advantage can never done is the cry in the PRV. Continue reading →

Fire one fuh Baby Prince comrade and let us do a collective prayer for the East Coast terrorists…including President Bharrat Jagdeo Inc. These are times when we all have to take a vow of plurality and co-existence and refrain from being materialistic and judgmental. But enough is enough is enough.
And Victoria please be reminded of our abiding indigenous religious teachings …BEHOLD: I SAW YOU STANDING THERE BEFORE ME….
Love will find its way.
The Plaisance fiasco may be over but instead of things getting better unfortunately things are getting worse. The Sparendaam police turned a blind eye to President Bharrat Jagdeo illicitly digging up and planting poles in the holes a spit from the police station. Same scenario a few feet away from the Cove and John police station….a ninety year old woman was raped, buggered and beaten to death as she took a preliminary walk in her home village.

EDDY GRANT SPEAKS ABOUT THE LONDON RIOTS – 2 VIDEOS
INVISIBLE LABOR UNDER ATTACK 04 04 2013
BY EWALT AINSWORTH
They say wise men came from the east. President Bharrat Jagdeo is a by-product of the twin city of Unity/Lancaster and if for any reason you are on the east coast kindly glance left; the left leaning iq-592 former President Bharrat Jagdeo may have his sights on that building, that playground or open space in your community.
Jagdeo has a weakness for sweetness…things left behind, things left-handed lefties and leff-leff. Plaisance will not give up and or give in; they did not send and call him and he should have had that un-common wisdom a year ago before he moved in to see beyond his nose and plant himself in an ants nest.
