All Guyanese must now demand that democracy prevails

Dear Editor,
I may not have attended the level of legal research completed by many of my esteemed, certified, and erudite colleagues. However, I have been around long enough to know, and be familiar with, the adage that “the law is not an ass”.

Indeed, those who adopt this posture, especially in this modern, technologically- advanced era, do so at their peril. The framework of selective convenience that Mr. Granger and his blindly indoctrinated following attempt to impose on the world and our Guyanese citizens is legally abusive, and is as asinine as it is hopelessly flawed and in direct conflict with this proven axiom.
The Chairwoman of GECOM MUST therefore ensure that there is no further delay in declaring Dr. Irfaan Ali as Guyana’s Ninth Executive President.

Before and following the March 02, 2020 Elections, the Granger-led PNC/AFC agents deliberately influenced and induced many obstinate and abusive firsts that targeted suppression of the will and rights of the Guyanese people. When it became apparent that the wicked regime was rejected by the majority of citizens, the approach punctuated with a flagrant sense of vitriolic rancor that lacked rationality and reasoning. It is one that only serves to highlight the power-driven desperation of the confirmed dictator, who continues to prove that he is hell-bent on suffering our nation to fuel his personal aggrandisement and that of his cronies.

The David Granger cabal, including the PNC/APNU/AFC and contaminated tools like Keith Lowenfield in the GECOM Secretariat, then and now demonstrate unabated recalcitrance, making it obvious that they had decided a long time ago to throw any decency out of the window. In their effort to derail the result of the March 02, 2020 National and Regional Elections, they have embarked on an extremely abhorrent attack on all of our international partners as well as civil-minded local eminent persons and institutions.

Notably, Mr. Granger’s apparent suicidal and reflected self-destructive tendency is evidentially one that all Guyanese MUST join to counter in demanding democracy prevail.
The cabal and cronies have singled out respected men and women of venerated character, including leaders of States, ambassadors, and representatives of key institutions who have helped carry our burdens, on which to spew their most vulgar concoctions. In so doing, they have cast a long-lasting stain and significant dent on Guyana’s international image, while attempting to annihilate those who are required to support us in the international financial institutions and other multilateral fora.

Certainly, I call on all Guyanese to condemn this ill-conceived mass suicidal portion, which can be likened to the PNC’s partnership of death with Jim Jones in 1978.
Editor, it is outright unacceptable for any sort of attacks to be hurled at our apex court, the Caribbean Court of Justice, and also equally reprehensive for the unjustified APNU/AFC assault on our local Judiciary. It is a first that we observe a political party seeking to hold campaign meetings after the elections and before the declaration is announced by the Chairperson of GECOM. This is indeed tantamount to the rationale of desperate diseased minds that our nation must not even contemplate following. The outright rejection by the smaller parties of the dictator’s call for dialogue at this time is generously applauded. It is this unified position of all the political parties that contested the elections that is sending shivers down the spine of the PNC.

It is of national importance also that the Elections in Guyana were overlooked by Observers from CARICOM, OAS, Commonwealth, along with many prominent and distinguished ambassadors, who have pronounced definitively on the transparent manner in which the voting process was conducted. Equally significant is the fact that the just concluded elections were conducted under the watchful eyes of many local organisations. There is agreement by the Chief Justice, the Caribbean Court of Justice, and the Guyana Elections Commission that the Recount declaration figures must be used to declare the winning list of the March Election in Guyana.

In this context, Guyanese must stay strong and united as our nation struggles for the acceptance of the Election results, and NEVER AGAIN must we allow this power-drunk cabal to stay in power illegally. The support of the international community to stand with the Guyanese people in support of democracy, truth and justice must also be highly praised.

One could imagine the brutality and chaos that would have emerged in the absence of such vital support. Our nation must never again fall prey to the sinister guile and untrustworthy melodrama of the likes of this evil Granger-led cabal, which time and time again demonstrated a propensity to defy the Constitution and abuse the decisions of the Courts.
The political situation in Guyana is getting very uneasy, and tension is precipitous. Our people have been very patient and willing to listen to the PPPC’s Leadership. Meanwhile, Mr. Granger and his PNC’s threats and outburst that he is not going to concede is certainly a concern, given that they want the lone ranger Keith Lowenfield. However, this will not be accepted. Our people demand that democracy prevail! Save Guyana now, Madam Chairwoman.

Sincerely,
Neil Kumar
