Arsonists attempt to channa bomb Carol Sooba’s home By Michel Outridge POLICE report that at about 01:30hrs on August 06, 2014, the Lot 78-1 Duncan Street, Campbellville, Georgetown residence of acting Town Clerk Carol Sooba was channa bombed by occupants of a dark coloured motor car, who exited and threw two Molotov cocktails into the premises. Fortunately, the devices failed to ignite, but a glass window of the security hut located at the front of the premises was damaged, and the front of her wooden two-storey house was slightly scorched. Speaking to the media at her home yesterday morning, a visibly upset Sooba said that she was at home when the incident happened. She said a member of her security detail telephoned 911, and the police responded very quickly; they even took away samples of the two channa bombs. She related that, on Tuesday, someone at City Hall was questioning certain persons there, and she overheard some comments. An individual later telephoned her to say that there had been a planned meeting somewhere, she had been the subject discussed, and the individual was informing her out of concern for her safety. Sooba said the male caller had even divulged the name of the senior official from City Hall and of other ‘evil elements’ who had been involved in the meeting, and had advised her to be cautious because of certain decisions that had been made. “As such, I was very uneasy last week after hearing those things, and there were also several pieces of information that I received then,” she said. Asked whether yesterday morning’s incident had anything to do with her attendance at the High Court later in the day for a ruling in relation to her retaining the Acting Town Clerk post, Sooba said it might be possible. She opined that the incident was just another attack to silence her because she has had many unpleasant experiences aimed at ‘scaring her

off’ since her appointment as Acting Town Clerk at the City Council (M&CC). After Chief Justice Ian Chang had ruled that Carol Sooba was the de facto Town Clerk and she could remain in that position until her appointment was challenged by a quo warranto, M&CC Public Relations Officer Royston King went ahead and filed the quo warranto, subsequent to Sooba and

himself approaching the Court of Appeal to quash the ruling of the Chief Justice. This latest, seemingly calculated attack on Sooba came days after Mayor Hamilton Green had ordered Chief Constable Andrew Foo to pull security personnel from Sooba’s residence. Police investigations are reportedly in progress.

APNU confirms support for AFC’s no-confidence motion…

Call for snap elections before no-confidence motion not ‘impossible’ – HPS - motion’s consideration no one-day affair, could be ‘soap-opera’

By Vanessa Narine Opposition leader Brigadier (rtd.) David Granger, yesterday confirmed A Partnership for National Unity’s (APNU) support for the Alliance For Change’s (AFC) no-confidence motion against the Government, and together the combined Opposition is expected to address the motion in October, when the National Assembly comes out of recess. Head of the Presidential Secretariat (HPS), Dr. Roger Luncheon, yesterday at a news conference, stated that a call for snap elections from the Head of State during the two-month recess, before the motion is tabled, is not impossible. “Nothing is impossible. Nothing is impossible…I don’t believe it is a question of strategy that determines the response to a no-confidence motion,” he said. SOAP OPERA However, Dr. Luncheon noted that if the recess, which starts on Friday, is uneventful, there is a process of consideration that must be followed in addressing the tabling of a no-confidence motion – a process the HPS likened to a soap opera. “The debate and the points that are made and the points that are not made and who said what; I don’t mind having a soap opera behind the whole issue, the whole process evolving to its fullest before a decision is made,” he said. According to him, there is no need to speculate on the process that will follow once a no-confidence motion is tabled, as the mechanisms to address such a move are clearly spelled out in both the Constitution and the Standing Orders that guide the proceedings of the National Assembly. He said, “There is hardly any need to speculate, where indeed a resort to mechanisms that allow for the consideration of parliamentary political parties to act on motions and those type of challenges to the established order. “…the no-confidence motion is an example of the type of challenges that national governments face and I am saying that they are

specific mechanisms that are captured in the law and various authoritative sources that would indeed dictate how these matters are dealt with.” Dr. Luncheon added that the current Administration expects that once the no-confidence motion is introduced, the stipulated process will be set in motion.

It is a matter of process,” he said. Asked if the matter was discussed at Cabinet at its last meeting on Tuesday, Dr. Luncheon noted that note was taken of the development, but there was no substantive discussion on the matter. “Note was taken at the Cabinet meeting of the inten-

“Our expectation is for the motion to be introduced, for the Speaker to rule and then kicking in would be the decision making on these issues and this has to do with timing, the exigencies; you have a recess, you have a process for consideration of a no confidence motion,” he said.

tion that had been reported in the media, but I am not quite certain if what subsequently took place can be called a discussion,” he said. The notion of a no-confidence motion was first voiced by the AFC’s Vice Chairman, Moses Nagamootoo, in mid-June. Nagamootoo had indicated that the party was considering the movement of a no-confidence motion against the Government. Nagamootoo, in an article published in the Stabroek News, under the headline ‘AFC considering no-confidence motion against Gov’t’, said such a move is seriously being contemplated by his party. However, he acknowledged that a no-confidence

NO ONE-DAY AFFAIR The HPS made clear that the consideration of a no-confidence motion will be no one-day affair. “Its consideration is prescribed. It is not intended to be a one day affair….one has to delve into Constitution, standing orders, the law, agreement between political parties on the way forward.

motion would have to be supported by the main Opposition. A few days after, last Friday, APNU endorsed this possibility as a serious consideration. READY FOR ELECTIONS President Donald Ramotar, at his most recent press conference, made it clear that the ruling party is in a state of readiness in the event of “any” elections, be it local government or general elections. “We have said that we are ready and we have to be ready. We have to be ready because we have a one-seat minority in the National Assembly. The joint Opposition has one seat more than we; therefore it means that at any time they can pass a no-confidence motion. From that point of view, we have to always be ready for any

elections,” he said. The Head of State also maintained that his Government will not be threatened by talk of a no-confidence motion, a sentiment he expressed when the notion of a no-confidence move against his Government was first raised. “If the Opposition wants to bring a no-confidence motion I cannot stop them from bringing a no-confidence motion, but I will be ready to deal with the consequences of that,” Mr. Ramotar said. Section 106 (6) of the Constitution states that: “The Cabinet and President shall resign if the Government is defeated by the vote of the majority of all Members of the National Assembly on a vote of confidence.” However, the following paragraph, Section 106 (7) makes clear that: “Notwithstanding its defeat, the Government shall remain in of-

fice and shall hold an election within three months, or such longer period as the National Assembly shall, by resolution, supported by no less than two-thirds of all elected members of the National Assembly, and shall resign after a new President takes the oath of office following the election.” Additionally, the President has previously hinted at the possibility of an early return to the polls, as a means to address the political gridlock that has gripped the nation since the 2011 general elections, which gave the ruling party, the People’s Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C) the Government, but also resulted in a majority in the National Assembly for the combined Opposition, the AFC and APNU. The last general elections in Guyana were held in November 2011.

Iraq crisis: Mosul air strike ‘kills dozens’ (BBC News) AT LEAST 30 people have been killed in an air strike in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, reports say. Sources told the BBC the target was a prison used as a base by fighters from the Islamic State (IS), a jihadist group that seized Mosul in June. Some of those killed were being held by the militants, they said, adding that a drone might have been used. Iraqi state TV reported that at least 60 militants were killed and about 300 detainees were able to escape. Kurdish forces, known as Peshmerga, were also reportedly shelling eastern districts of Mosul and an area to the north-east on Wednesday.

Delhi gang rape: India outrage over fashion shoot (BBC News) AN INDIAN fashion shoot showing a woman being groped on a bus has caused anger, with social media users saying it glamorises the 2012 Delhi gang rape. Photographer Raj Shetye’s images show a model fighting off men on a bus, in a scene reminiscent of the rape and murder that shocked India. Many social media users said they found the photos “disgusting” and “horrible”. Mr Shetye said the shoot was “just a depiction of the situation of women in our country” and not based on the rape. The photos were taken down from the Behance site after angry reactions on Twitter and Facebook. The gang rape and murder of the 23-year-old physiotherapy student - dubbed Nirbhaya (fearless) by the media - led to days of protests and forced the author-

All hands on deck …PNM officials, legal team meet on reform bills

(Trinidad Guardian) THE Opposition People’s National Movement (PNM) went into emergency response mode Tuesday , calling all MPs, legal advisers and officers to a series of meetings which began yesterday to formulate its position on the Government’s constitutional reform legislation, which will be debated in six days. PNM PRO Faris Al-Rawi confirmed the Opposition would hold a series of meetings from 10 am until last night to prepare for Monday’s debate of the bills — one of which involves the run-off ballot system which the PNM itself had introduced for its own internal

poll in May. “The debate is in six days, so it’s all hands on deck to examine the issues and prepare. We are not panicking. It’s all part of good organisation,” Al-Rawi added. At issue particularly is Government’s proposal for a run-off poll in elections, so that each member of the House of Representatives will only become an MP if he or she obtains more than 50 per cent of the votes cast in a constituency. The Prime Minister, who announced the measure on Monday, also announced proposals for a two-term limit for prime ministers and right of recall for non-performing MPs. These require a simple

majority vote for passage, she said. Debate begins on Monday morning in Parliament. While Government’s full complement of MPs was present at Monday’s opening of the parliamentary session, half the 13 Opposition MPs were absent. The PNM, which had expected a recess, later accused Government of breaching Parliament’s new Standing Orders in convening sittings next week during the expected “vacation” period. Yesterday, Al-Rawi said PNM leader Keith Rowley called today’s meeting with MPs to get the party’s position going. The party hierarchy is also meeting with legal

AG: Election reform will empower voters (Trinidad Guardian) ATTORNEY GENERAL Anand Ramlogan has dismissed mounting public criticism of sweeping changes to the electorial process proposed in the Constitution (Amendment) Bill 2014. In a telephone interview yesterday evening Ramlogan said the “revolutionary” ammendments to the Constitution would serve to empower citizens by increasing their role in the elections of MPs and the overall government. “These changes do not deprive any citizen of their fundamental rights. In fact, it seeks to add to those rights by giving them the ability to not only hire their MPs but also fire them,” he added. Ramlogan also said the provision dealing with the right of recall for MPs who

have served three years of their elected terms, would introduce a new dynamic in local politics. “The right of recall is a sword of damocles that will hang over the heads of MPs to keep them in check and ensure they perform,” he explained. Refering to the segment of the legislation dealing with runoff polls for candidates who fail to attain 50 per cent of votes cast in general elections, Ramlogan said that would ensure that both government and Opposition MPs do not neglect parts of their constituencies. He noted that once passed by Parliament, the provision would boost small political parties, whose minority support would be a deciding factor in a runoff poll between the top two candidates in a constituency.

“It is plainly more democratic to have an MP, who gained the support of the majority of his constituents as opposed to one who was elected with a minority vote,” he added. Ramlogan praised the proposed limit of two terms for prime ministers and fixed dates for elections, two main considerations in the draft legislation. “The fixed dates for elections will bring certainty and allow for proper planning. Long gone will be the days of election by ambush,” he said. When asked whether he believed that the radical changes should have required a special majority vote to be passed by Parliament, Ramlogan said no, as he claimed he had already consulted several world renowned constitutional experts on the issue.

St Lucia PM says term limits for heads of govt should be decided by the people CASTRIES, St Lucia (CMC) -- PRIME Minister Dr Kenny Anthony says he believes term limits for government leaders should be decided by the people. “I believe that’s a matter for the people to decide, and I share the view that the people of the country will decide whether they are tired of you or not,” Anthony said. Anthony, a former law lecturer at the University of

the West Indies (UWI), was speaking against the decision of the coalition People’s Partnership government in Trinidad and Tobago to introduce legislation to amend the country’s constitution providing for two-term limit for prime ministers and the right to recall legislators. The amendment will also allow for voters in the twin-island republic to participate in a runoff vote, if the

winner of a seat in the general election does not command 50 per cent of the votes cast. Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar described the proposals as a bold step that would breathe new life into the democratic process, but the opposition People’s National Movement (PNM) said the move was a strategy to divert attention from the ongoing ills confronting the country.

the PNM’s highest decision-making body outside of a party convention and involves representatives of all constituencies.

Recidivism: A recurring nightmare for the law-abiding WHAT justifies sending repeat-offender criminals into mainstream society? This was the question posed by a letter-writer to this newspaper. He was alluding to the sentencing inconsistency by magistrates and judges who habitually merely rap the knuckles of repeat offenders of serious crimes that have potentially murderous outcomes, then sending them back to wreak havoc in a defenceless society once more; and one cannot help but wonder about the professional ethics of those charged with the custody of the laws of the land. What would be really poetic justice is if the

criminals target the families of those offending and offensive keepers of the laws, and let them feel the anguish first-hand of the victims of the criminals they set loose on the innocent, hard-working citizens, who sometimes lose their all, even their lives many times, or the lives of their loved ones, while being plundered by the societal predators, whose idea of wealth-creation is to arm themselves and rob others of their hard-earned money and other valuables. While this scenario is a prevalent one across the country, the letter-writer was making specific reference in

this instance to Rawle Victor, called ‘Ralo’, 29, of Sheet Anchor Village, East Canje, Berbice, who is alleged to have robbed businessman Mohamed Ali at gunpoint, and relieved him of $2.5M just after being released on bail from the New Amsterdam court, where he was on three charges: Two for Robbery Under Arms, and one for Robbery with Aggravation. He was caught after diving into a swamp to elude police and public-spirited citizens. Another man, who was with Victor, fled the scene. There are many, many implications here, foremost of which is where did he acquire the gun

immediately after leaving the court, and why, in the first three instances, was he not charged with illegal possession of a firearm. But even more important is the reason for someone so obviously dangerous to society to be out on the streets. This is a recurring nightmare for the law-abiding citizens of Guyana; also for the professional police ranks who oftentimes risk their lives to catch these predators on society, only to see them walk free mere minutes or days after. Research needs to be done to identify the magistrates and judges who are continually lenient with

hardcore criminals and take them off the bench, because they are more dangerous than the criminals themselves. Indeed, their shirking of their responsibilities as guardians of the society through wise adjudication should be considered a criminal offence punishable by law, especially if a felon commits the same crime, or any crime at all, after being set loose by these myopic champions of the criminal fraternity. It is only by God’s grace and the help of public-spir-

ited citizens that the money and probably the life of New Amsterdam businessman Mohamed Ali has been saved; but the ‘what ifs’ are there, striking fear in every law-abiding citizen of the land. Had Mohamed Ali lost his life, then the only culpable person would have been the person who sent Rawle Victor back on the streets after committing serious crimes, not once, but several times. This is a matter that needs to be looked into, and urgently, by the powersthat-be.

Hopetown soiree: A shameful affair

A NEWS report stated: “Minutes after leaving court, a man described as a notorious bandit was nabbed by police and civilians after allegedly snatching over $2M from a Berbice businessman. “Rawle Victor, called ‘Ralo’, 29, of Sheet Anchor Village, East Canje, Berbice was arrested at around 13:00 hrs yesterday, after allegedly holding businessman Mohamed Ali at gunpoint and relieving him of $2.5M that the victim said he was about to deposit in a New Amsterdam bank. “He was caught after diving into a swamp to elude police and public-spirited citizens. Another man, who was with Victor, fled the scene. “Victor was recently released on bail when he was on three charges – two for robbery under arms and one for robbery with aggravation. According to information, Victor had just left the New Amsterdam court yesterday, after appearing on these charges, when he attacked Ali.” A ‘notorious bandit’ can, and will, commit repeated acts of thefts at gunpoint; even murder his victim, minutes after leaving court, because he knows that even if he is taken to the court again, he will be sent out on the streets by the judges and magistrates to prey on law-abiding citizens. There is no protection from the law for honest, hard-working citizens in Guyana, who are perpetual victims of the predators who literally get away with murder. This is what is wrong in Guyana. I am over 60 years old now, and I know that persons like this one will never work for an honest living. Most Guyanese who are close to 100 years old know it too. The only set of people that do not seem to know it are those in the judiciary, those calling themselves human rights advocates but are mainly criminal rights advocates, and those who want power to rule. This is the reason why citizens live in total fear, because they are not free to walk the streets, to go about their business; not safe in their places of employment; and not free in their own homes. Media people do not seem to see what is wrong here, and neglect their responsibility to beat down the revolving doors until real justice is served. News people will go after who is building what and who is getting what contract, and many of them seem to be on the side of criminals, too. Media moguls have loads of money to protect themselves and their families, so there is no interest in protecting the small man on the streets.

IT was particularly troubling to read in the Sunday Chronicle of August 3, 2014 that “Hopetown Emancipation Soiree turns into Jameaican-style passa-passa affair”, and the level of denigration this time-honoured activity was subject to, all because the youths of the community had no inkling of the meaning of this traditional Emancipation Eve event that heralds Freedom Day festivities. Hopetown is one of the communities famous for the hosting of soirees, and the shameful events of Thursday, 31 July 2014 have to be seen as a stain on the community as a whole and the youths in particular. The article did not state whether there was a Hopetown Emancipation Committee responsible for the planning and execution of the event, even though the reporter spoke with three very angry and disillusioned adults of the community. It has to be questioned how were ‘several massive stereo sets’ allowed to be part of this solemn and reflective occasion. Where were the drummers? Further, how were the youths, in gay abandon, allowed to enter the compound of the Fort Wellington Primary and Secondary schools? An investigation is warranted here by the relevant authorities. Additionally, the police seemed ineffective, and it certainly did not help with the makeshift bars and beverage vendors who sought to capitalize on an already out-of-control situation to make a quick dollar any way and with anyone they could. It is inconceivable, and from all appearances, no community control was exercised from the time it was observed that youths from outlying villages were pouring into the community and their presence was not in the best interest of the activity taking place. I am of the view that the community failed the event. The sorry display by youths at Hopetown last Thursday is not symptomatic to Hopetown alone, but is a chronic problem across the land. The community of Hopetown must reflect and ponder on the disgraceful and outrageous events of their young people last Thursday, which was not only reprehensible and appalling, but discredited a community known for upholding traditions and customs. It is hoped that the lessons taken from this fiasco would serve to strengthen the community and make its members resolve that, come next year, its soiree event will be free of the blemishes that marred this year’s, thereby restoring the community’s image and wellbeing.

Are the youths of today really the future? THIS is a question that I’ve been asking myself for years upon years; and, trust me, I’ve been getting the answer that any other youth of Guyana would hope to get, which is yes the youths of today are the faces of tomorrow. I think I could take the liberty to speak for every other young adult about that statement, and how much of a motivation it is to us; and this is not just because of the fact that we are youths, but I would say it is mainly

because of the responsibility that would be placed on us by the people to whom we look up, such as our elders and our idols. Although some may think that the youths of today are not willing and capable of taking control of the future -- in order to continue developing themselves as a human race, as our ancestors had done over time -- there are still some concerned individuals who know for certain that, with the right preparation

and guidance, the youths of today can complete that task of preserving a better world tomorrow. These concerned individuals are what I would call visionaries, and they are members of the ruling party of Guyana, the PPP/C. After what I have personally experienced over the years with the PPP/C Government, I should testify that they do not only have the interest of the Guyanese citizens at heart, but most essentially they believe that

the future lies in the hands of us, the youths. Other Guyanese could attest to this if they would only read between the lines and do their necessary homework, instead of just going by what the Opposition may want them to believe, which is a bunch of lies. Before the 2014 Budget was presented in Parliament, I personally read a few articles whereby the Opposition was continuously broadcasting to the public about how 2014 is the year to increase

Some suggestions on suicide prevention THE Caribbean Voice, through its social activism programme, Arise (https://www.facebook. com/groups/suicideepidemic/), has been advocating a number of measures that are low cost or no cost, easy to implement, and that can be significant in helping to tackle the suicide epidemic sweeping Guyana. And we do believe that redressing this plague definitely requires a multi-sectoral approach, as pointed out by Health Minister Dr. Bheri Ramsaran. In this context, we strongly believe that Ministry of Education has a crucial role to play. Firstly, we are suggesting that the Health and Family Life Education Programme curriculum should include suicide, substance abuse, all forms of violence, and abuse with special emphasis on domestic abuse, relationships and intimacy (at the appropriate age levels), including teenage pregnancy and alcoholism and substance abuse. Teachers who handle this curriculum can be provided with in-add service and/or professional development training on evenings, weekends and holidays. Secondly, we suggest that the initiative to have at least one guidance counsellor in each school, which existed some time ago, should be re-launched. Teachers can be provided with basic training through the University of Guyana (all campuses) and/ or in service training.

These counsellors could perform dual roles by also serving the communities in which their schools are located, at least during their working hours. Thirdly, we also suggest that, through parent/teachers associations, workshops on good parenting be held, especially focusing on suicide and related issues, identification of signs and signals, and first response, using empathetic communication and affirmation of self-acceptance, self-forgiveness and self-worth. Resources from teaching staffs, UG, the Ministries of Health, Home Affairs and Social Services, as well as the national associations of psychologists and social workers can be tapped to ensure the success of these workshops. Fourthly, we also suggest that these issues can be incorporated into the academic curriculum and extra curricula activities via essay, poetry, art, debates, drama and quizzes. In this regard, The Caribbean Voice is prepared to underwrite an essay contest for all schools for the 2014/15 school year. In fact, we have already presented to the Guyana Teachers’ Union a proposal relating to this contest. Furthermore, we urge that, through the good office of the Honourable Minister of Education, the initiative recently undertaken by students at Black Bush Polder, New Amsterdam and the Essequibo Coast -- to rally

against suicide and related issues -- be extended countrywide both as a means of bringing public attention to these issues as well as to develop social activism in our students, so that they can take this activism into their communities and various community-based institutions. Perhaps students can be allowed one day a semester (term), at least one day a school year, for this kind of activity; and parents and the community can also be invited to participate. We are certain that, if alerted, the media would be delighted to cover these events. Perhaps students themselves can do reports for the media. Additionally, we strongly urge that fifth formers be tasked with conducting surveys on suicide, domestic violence, and related issues within their communities; and that they use the information to infer patterns et cetera. This exercise can be projects in ELA, science and social studies. The Caribbean Voice is willing to assist with drafting the questionnaires, if such help is needed. And we are also willing to collect the answers to questionnaires, collate and analyze them, and present the findings to the Education Ministry and the media, if the Ministry is unable to do so. Also, we support the point made by our board member Dr. Faith Harding, as published recently in the media – that students at the

Teachers Training College and the University of Guyana be taught courses on mental health. This knowledge and the attendant skills can, and will, become needed in the work place, the community, and their family lives.

jobs in Guyana, and also that 2014 was the year of our youths. Now fast forward a few months later, when the Government had presented the 2014 Budget with 33% allocated in favour of the youths. In other words, 33% of the proposed budget was for the Ministry of Education, of which the youths of Guyana would have been the benefactors. And with the same breath that the Opposition had used to say that this is the year of the youths and also the year to increase employment, the Opposition blocked a lot of the funding to initiatives,

including the advancement of our indigenous brothers and sisters. This action by the Opposition did not only hurt the youths of Guyana, but also a lot of elderly persons, with all of the cuts of important projects that they voted against because of their oneseat majority in Parliament. Now it is up to us, as citizens of Guyana, to stop placing a blind eye to these unprincipled actions by the Opposition, and speak out for the sake of our kids and their kids’ future. The PPP/C is for us! LANCELOT ADAMS

GECOM should answer burning questions on elections-readiness

THE governing PPP has got to stop the ludicrous labelling of any citizen or organisation that calls for constitutionally mandated Local Government Elections (LGE) as being “on the side of the political opposition”. The only sides applicable are those of putting country and democracy first. The very PPP has said that it wants LGE and is ready, but instead of setting a date for the elections, chooses to question the integrity of GECOM’s readiness and its Chairman. My advice to GECOM would be to invite all political parties and civil society leaders to examine its operations, and to hear and see first-hand why it believes it is ready for LGE; and to also answer any queries those invited stakeholders might have. Moreover, those invited organisations should be required to pronounce publicly on their assessment afterwards. This would put an end to this matter once and for all. CHONTELLE SEWETT Blue CAPS

CRIME Chief Leslie James left the High Court yesterday to become familiar with the shocking details in three thick files that the Guyana Police Force compiled of its Special Branch secret surveillance of Guyanese citizens under the Government of the People’s National Congress (PNC). The files detail intense Police Special Branch surveillance of Guyanese in 1980, with even mundane day-to-day activities under underground Police watch, monitoring, reporting on and filing. The files reveal shocking details and stunning State paranoia in Guyana during 1978 to 1980, the period of the country’s socio-political history that led up to the bomb blast a s s a s s i n a t i o n o f D r.

Wa l t e r R o d n e y w h o died when the bomb exploded in his car on June 13, 1980. James, a Senior Superintendent with the Police Force, returns to the witness stand today at the Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry to answer questions regarding these crucial files. Commission Chairman Sir Richard Cheltenham yesterday adjourned proceedings pending James’ familiarity with the files’ content. Commission Counsel Latchmie Rahamat spent several hours yesterday grilling Senior Superintendent James on details in the files, but Sir Richard expressed concern that the senior Police officer had only browsed the files during a break at yesterday’s hearings. The files detail dark,

sinister Police spying and surveillance on top leaders of the Working People’s Alliance ( W PA ) a n d t h e P e o ple’s Progressive Party (PPP), including routine details of mundane meetings, movement and ordinary conversations. A detailed surveillance of Buxton and the movements of Eusi Kwayana and other leaders of the WPA show up in the files, including a map of Kwayana’s Buxton home, on what street he entered and exited Buxton, and where the Police informer was stationed observing Kwayana. Each page of typed and written information on Guyanese political leaders opposing the repressive PNC Government is labelled ‘SECRET”, and details the movements,

The files also reveal that the Police Special Branch was obsessed with the idea that the WPA and PPP might have been planning to cooperate to get rid of the dictatorial PNC regime through violence.

conversations, whereabouts and plans of senior WPA leaders, and several other citizens, including lawyer Miles Fitzpatrick and several overseas-based persons visiting Guyana. The Police sought information from other Caribbean countries on persons it was interested in, with Police information coming in from Grenada and Trinidad and Tobago. The files also reveal that the Police Special Branch was obsessed with the idea that the W PA a n d P P P m i g h t have been planning to cooperate to get rid of the dictatorial PNC regime through violence. But one page in the file, labelled “SECRET”, with markings SF 51/28 and number 1959, dated March 11, 1980, noted that a meeting at Canal Numb e r Tw o P o l d e r h a d discussed Dr. Cheddi Jagan’s disregard for violence as a political strategy. “ON Sat 8 Mar 80, around 14.00hrs, six PPP supporters for the No. 2 Canal area and who are employed at Wa l e s E s t a t e , w e r e having a drink at a liquor bar at No. 2 Canal. They then spoke among other things the following: a) That the PPP and PNC are one with JAGAN giving certain advice to BURNHAM

on the socialist policy. Mention was made that Jagan often visits Burnham at the residence or Belfield house and activists of the PPP and WPA have known to have seen him on such visits. Because of this, supporters of his concluded that the PPP had sold out his supporters, especially the East Indians. Several more points follow in the filed page, including a note that “mention was also made of the intention of the WPA to violently overthrow the PNC with the support of the PPP. However, Jagan disclosed to Burnham the plan to do so, which resulted in failure.” The P N C G overnment had the State, through the Police Force’s Special Branch, conducting surveillance on even rum shop gaffs, the files disclose. However, it also indicates that the PNC Government knew that a violent overthrow of its authoritarian rule was not being planned, and that the PPP had no interest in resorting to violence to unseat the draconian dictatorship. In fact, the files reveal that the Special Branch was reporting to its political superiors that the idea of violence “resulted in failure.” The PNC continues to defend itself against

widespread persistent international allegations that senior PNC operatives used the State machinery of the PNC Government to assassinate Dr. Walter Rodney with the claim that Dr. Rodney may have blown up himself by mistake in his car, and that he knowingly possessed a bomb. The information in this file thus debunks that theory. The Commission’s work is revealing the depths of political paranoia that informs how the PNC Government saw Guyanese citizens. The PNC Government used State agencies like the Police Force’s Special Branch to conduct secret surveillance of nearly every single person whose name appeared in public, anyone who commented on PNC Government policies, or anyone planning group meetings. Surveillance included Police perusing travel records of the Berbice ferry, constant surveillance of cars of top Guyanese leaders, and intense spying on anyone selling the WPA publication, Day Clean.

Old Kai: Chronicles of Guyana…

David Granger commits the most cardinal of sins - Announcing support for AFC’s no-confidence motion without consultation

OLD Kai can understand why Opposition leader David Granger has announced that PNCR-APNU will support the AFC’s no-confidence motion against the PPP/C Government, which, if passed, will trigger early general and regional elections. Mr. Granger really did not have any other option, after the ongoing debacle inside Congress Place. His gamble is that early elections will serve to mask the divisions and the continued victimisation of ostracised Party members. It is a desperate throw of the dice, as Granger apparently feels he has nothing left to lose, when considered that were the Opposition to wait until the constitutionally due date for elections, they may only be a shadow of themselves currently, with so much individuals opting out of the Party. No doubt they will go all out to generate some momentum, based on a campaign of misinformation, similar to what emerged after their Congress where the PPP was blamed for all their troubles, only for them to be exposed

subsequently. When one glances at their report card since enjoying a one-seat majority in the National Assembly over the PPP/C close to three years ago, it becomes grimmer for the Opposition. They have done everything in their power to undermine programmes and projects directed to the benefit of all Guyanese, including their support base; they continue their efforts to undermine our economy by refusing to support crucial regional and international treaties which will result in Guyana being blacklisted, while at the same time they quite logically refuse to offer a plausible excuse for their actions. Mr. Granger is not ignorant of this reality; rather, he has long now began to view their one-seat majority as a curse rather than a cure, as it has placed their leadership skills under a microscope of increased public scrutiny. The PNCR has never been comfortable with being accountable to the people; they have a rich history to

support this conclusion. However, there was an intriguing comment from Mr. Granger during his announcement that his Party will support the AFC’s no confidence motion. He is quoted by Internet site, Demerara Waves as saying, “The position of the Shadow Cabinet is to give support to the AFC… We have resolved to support it, and we have to discuss it further with our own partners, who have not yet been informed of our decision.” This is a case of Mr. Granger once again putting the cart before the horse, as, yet again he contradicts his ‘one nation’ ideals, where consultation at all levels before arriving at decisions has been stated as a prerequisite. He indicates that his partners will only be consulted after, and not before, his shadow cabinet has made such a crucial decision, which bears all the hallmarks of totalitarianism. Is this how they will attend to the affairs of Guyanese in our budding democracy were they elected to Government?

AFC’s No-Confidence Motion

Nandlall says Nagamootoo must explain ‘violent removal’ comment By Vanessa Narine VICE Chairman of the Alliance For Change (AFC), Mr. Moses Nagamootoo, contends that the atmosphere in Guyana is tense enough to result in the “violent” removal of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) administration if it continues to govern. But his comment, published in the Guyana Times on Wednesday in an article headlined ‘No-confidence motion avoids “violent” removal of PPP/C – AFC’, has attracted attention and raised eyebrows. Nagamootoo is reported to have said, “It (the no-confidence motion) is intended to open doors and possibilities for the renewal of our political life and political culture. I think the no-confidence motion will have a good taste and good smell for the people. “…if you did not have a peaceful removal of a government and the government has done sufficiently enough wrong things, then you may have a violent removal of the government. This motion is trying to prevent a situation in Guyana that could bring great harm to all of our people.” Asked to comment on the matter, Attorney-General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, stated that Nagamootoo should be called upon to explain what he means by a “violent removal” of the Government. “Such an eventuality is a treasonable act, which is a capital offence punishable by death, and therefore this is a serious

disclosure which ought not to be lightly dismissed,” Nandlall said. He also described Nagamootoo as well known to be “afflicted with delusions of grandeur,” evidence of which is seen

in the statements he makes. Nandlall said, “One recalls his delusional claim that Dr. Cheddi Jagan anointed him somewhere in the Rupununi to take over the PPP (Peoples Progressive Party). It is in this same vein that he conjures up the ‘creation of history and

a revolution’ in the local political landscape in Guyana by tabling of a no-confidence motion, all of which he will subsequently credit to himself as his personal achievements. This is vintage Moses Nagamootoo.” The AG reiterated that Article 106 of the Constitution confers upon every member in the National Assembly the right to table a no-confidence motion against the Government. “The public spectacle that is being created is completely unwarranted, and is simply intended to excite political sentiments. Mr. Nagamootoo spoke about this no-confidence motion nearly two months ago, and up to now he cannot complete drafting it. The population is getting tired of these idle political threats. “It is not without significance that Mr. Nagamootoo chooses to make these statements while his leader, Mr. Khemraj Ramjattan, is in Canada attending a wedding,” he said. The AG expressed hope that international organisations, including the United Nations (UN), CARICOM (Caribbean Community), the OAS (Organisation of American States), UNASUR (Union of South American Nations) and the embassies of foreign countries in Guyana have taken note on Nagamootoo’s comments. “This is a threat against democracy, the rule of law and constitutional governance,” Nandlall concluded. Attempts to contact PPP General Secretary Clement Rohee for a comment on the matter proved futile.

Kaieteur News publisher, editor facing another multi-million dollar lawsuit By Vanessa Narine ATTORNEY-GENERAL and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall has moved to the courts again; this time with two libel suits against publisher Glen Lall and editor Adam Harris of the Kaieteur News, as well as the company, National Media and Publishing Company Limited. The lawsuit is claiming damages of more than $30M in the first instance and in excess of $20M in the second. Nandlall yesterday filed two Writs of Summons and Statements of Claims against Adam Harris, Mohan Lall (aka Glenn Lall) and the National Media And Publishing Company Limited – the three being listed as defendants in both. The first writ, seen by the Guyana Chronicle, addresses a headline and article, deemed by the AG as libelous, which was published on July 31, 2014. The headline read ‘Men in Anil Nandlall’s vehicle terrorise Kaieteur News staff’. Nandlall is seeking, according to the court documents: * Damages in excess of $10,000,000 for libel contained in the headline captioned, ‘Men in Anil Nandlall’s vehicle terrorise Kaieteur News staff’, published by the defendants on page one of the issue of Kaieteur News newspaper on July 31, 2014; * Damages in excess of $10,000,000 for libel contained in the article captioned, ‘Men in Anil Nandlall’s vehicle terrorise Kaieteur News staff’, published by the defendants on page three of the issue of Kaieteur News newspaper on July 31, 2014;

* Aggravated or exemplary damages in excess of $10,000,000; and other costs. In the second lawsuit, the AG challenges comments included as an Editor’s Note below a letter submitted by him, responding to the July 31, 2014, allegations. The letter was published under the headline ‘Anil Nandlall responds to spy allegations’. In the second lawsuit, the AG is seeking: * Damages in excess of $10M for libel contained in the Editor’s Note immediately following the letter to the Editor under the caption, “Anil Nandlall responds to spy allegations”, published by the defendants on page five in the issue of Kaieteur News newspaper of August 1, 2014; * Aggravated or exemplary damages in excess of $10M; and * Other costs and orders as the court deems just and proper. Additionally, both accompanying Statements of Claims state that the publications on July 31, 2014 and on August 1, 2014, were both false and malicious. The statements added that the headline and article conveyed the clear impression that Nandlall was engaged in unlawful and criminal acts and that he is unfit to hold the offices of Attorney-General and Minister of Legal Affairs and a Member of Parliament. It said: “The said words in their natural and ordinary meaning meant and were understood to mean: (i) that the Plaintiff was engaged in criminal acts; (ii) that the Plaintiff is a terrorist and was engaged in an act of terrorism;

Owner of pit bulls hospitalised with hypertension after animals kill woman

By Leroy Smith

POLICE probing the killing of 51-year-old Joan Carter by two male pit bull dogs on Tuesday in the yard she shared with her sister and brother-in- law are treading cautiously at present with respect to charging the homeowner, Leslie Thomside. The Guyana Chronicle yesterday confirmed that the man was being guarded by police at a city hospital where he was admitted with high blood pressure since Tuesday afternoon. It is understood that since the incident he has been complaining of feeling unwell and constant headaches and requested to be taken to the hospital. Doctors there recommended that he be admitted since it was unsafe to send him home in his condition. While there is a charge under the laws of Guyana for

(iii) that the Plaintiff was engaged in acts designed and intended to intimidate, scare and terrorise the Defendants and the staff at Kaieteur News; (iv) that the Plaintiff was engaged in acts designed and intended to interfere with the Defendants’ constitutional right and freedom to published their newspapers; (v) that the Plaintiff was associated with or was part of a criminal gang that was armed with a gun; (vi) that the Plaintiff is part of or has connections to a criminal gang that fire-bombed a printing press of Kaieteur News at Eccles in 2002 and killed 5 Kaieteur News pressmen in 2006; (vii) that the Plaintiff has committed several criminal offences; (viii) the Plaintiff is unfit to hold the office of Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs and a seat as a Member of Parliament.” The court documents were issued by the AG’s legal representatives: Mr. Bernard C. De Santos, S. C., Mr. Euclin Gomes, Mr. Sase Gunraj and Mr. Ganesh A. Hira. The AG’s legal team maintains that both publications reflected libel that was calculated to cause and did cause him great public embarrassment, held him up to odium and ridicule and disparaged him as the Attorney-General and Minister of Legal Affairs and Member of Parliament, both nationally and internationally. Nandlall is expected to also rely on “several other disparaging and libelous publications” by the Kaieteur News of and concerning him. The defendants, according to the writs, will be required to appear in court or have judgment issued in favour of the AG.

owners who have dogs which harm persons due to poor supervision, that law is usually applied when the dog(s) breach fences or attack persons while in the company of their owner(s). On Tuesday Carter was killed by the two pit bull dogs which lived in the same yard where she had her living quarters but the animals roamed freely unless they were locked in their kennel. From all appearances, while the woman was never fond of dealing with the dogs, she would usually be around them when her brother-in-law was at home. However, on Tuesday when she was killed she was at home alone with the dogs and is believed to have attempted to lash one of them with a broom while she was sweeping the yard.

It was largely believed by persons in the area who witnessed what transpired that it was the raising of the broom on the dog that caused both of them to attack her. Yesterday Crime Chief Leslie James told the Guyana Chronicle that the matter is still under investigation. He said that there are a number of things that need to be considered in rearing dogs as vicious as the ones which attacked the woman on Tuesday. James stated that the police with the assistance of the owner of the animals were looking to have them removed from the home as a precautionary measure to avoid the dogs hurting anyone else.

Trotman has pre-empted the function of the Privileges Committee – AG By Vanessa Narine ATTORNEY General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, yesterday weighed in on the ruling of the Speaker of the National Assembly, Mr Raphael Trotman, regarding two motions to refer Alliance For Change (AFC) Members of Parliament (MPs) Khemraj Ramjattan and Cathy Hughes to a Parliamentary Privileges Committee. The AG contends that Trotman pre-empted -- if not usurped -- the function of the Privileges Committee when he rejected the complaints on the ground of lack of evidence. “The complaint was… sufficiently grave for the Speaker to have found a prima facie case, which necessitated him transmitting the same to the Privileges Committee for their consideration and deliberation. It is in that Committee that the evidence to which the Speaker made reference is to be adduced. “In my respectful view, the Speaker has pre-empted - if not usurped - the function of the Privileges Committee

when he rejected the said complaints on the ground of lack of evidence,” Nandlall said. GROUNDS FOR REFERRAL The AG noted that Ramjattan has publicly admitted in the press, on more than one occasion, that he is the attorney-at-law representing Fedders-Lloyd, a bidder who lost out on a bid in relation to the construction of the Specialty Hospital. “He has also publicly admitted that the owner of the Le Meriden Pegasus is a supporter and a financier of The Alliance For Change; and finally, in his ruling, the Speaker alluded to the fact that Mrs. Catherine Hughes was the Public Relations Officer to Mr. Fip Motilall in relation to the Amaila Falls Hydro Project, a fact that, according to the Speaker, was ‘widely known,’” the AG said. The AG said these facts made it obligatory for Ramjattan and Hughes to disclose their interests in and to the National Assembly when matters relating to these companies were being considered in the House. In-

stead, both AFC MPs “failed, neglected and omitted” to do so. “That is what I understand the gravamen of the complaint addressed,” the AG said. The AG said, “The Standing Orders regarding full and frank disclosures of the pecuniary interests were clearly designed to ensure that members of Parliament frankly and fully disclose to the House any pecuniary interests which they may have in relation to any matter occupying the attention of the House. “The clear mischief which was intended to be addressed was to avoid a conflict of interest situation, and to ensure that the rule of natural justice, which prohibits a person (from being) a judge in his own cause, is observed.” Nandlall also referred to the primary basis on which the complaints against the AFC MPs were rejected -the complaints were delayed in being made – and he underscored the fact that there is no limitation within which a complaint must be made. He said, “The other main ground upon which

uous situation he has created a requirement.”

Raphael Trotman the Speaker rejected the complaints was that the complainant was guilty of delay in preferring the said complaints. The fact is, however, that the Standing Orders create no limitation period for the lodging of complaints of this type; and therefore, the Speaker fell into grave error when he read and imposed into the Standing Orders such a requirement. “In other words, he has unilaterally imposed a requirement for the bringing of these types of Motion, which is not provided for and contemplated by the Standing Orders. It is therefore not a mere act of coincidence that the Speaker cannot find a precedent anywhere, as he said in his ruling, to support such a position. Out of a vac-

ERROR IN RULING The reasoning of the Speaker in this case was also likened to his ruling to refer Finance Minister, Dr. Ashni Singh to a Privileges Committee after a motion had been brought by A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) MP Carl Greenidge, the AG said. Nandlall said, “The Speaker committed a similar error in his ruling in relation to the Motion seeking to put the Minister of Finance before the Privileges Committee. “In that ruling, he said -- and I quote -- ‘Article 218 (3) (b) appears to contemplate a situation so grave and critical that it was not contemplated and provided for in the annual budgetary estimates; a situation which, in my considered opinion, would be akin to an outbreak of war or the occurrence of some unimaginable natural disaster.” The AG stressed that Article 218 (3) is written in very clear and unambiguous language. “It is therefore

Anil Nandlall quite a quantum leap for the Speaker to interpret that the said article contemplated before its utilisation ‘an outbreak of war or the occurrence of some imaginary disaster,’” he said. The AG said that each word must be given its ordinary literal and grammatical meaning. “I am flummoxed at how the Speaker arrived at the conclusion that the said article contemplated such grave eventualities when there is absolutely not a single word in that article which remotely lends to such an inference. The cannons of interpretation are very clear. Each word must be given (its) ordinary literal and grammatical meaning. “Therefore, I am unaware which cannon of constructions would justify such ingenious interpretation of Article 218 (3). Certainly it cannot be one known for the interpretation of Statutes and Constitution,” the AG concluded.

Present were Minister Norman Whittaker of the LGRD Ministry, Project Coordinator of the GSWMP, Mr. Gordon Gilkes; Acting Town Clerk of the Georgetown Municipality, Ms. Carol Sooba; City Engineer Mr. Colvern Venture, and other LGRD Ministry and M&CC officials.

The Guyana

Apicultural Society (GAS) is accordingly working along with the contractor to handle the problem of removing the bees. Apiculture is a technical term for bee-keeping. GAS President Mr. Linden Stuart made clear that the African Bees, which are often extracted from the tombs, are captured and taken to the bee farms along the Soesdyke-Linden Highway. Stuart noted that close to seven boxes of bees had already been removed from the Cemetery along St. Stephen Street. He added that the bees are usually agitated during the rainy season, and considering the heavy machinery being used in the area, the bees would be quite tense at this time, clearly outlining the need for the contractor and the apiculturists to work together to remove the bees. Stuart and his team pre-

sented the startling reality that one tomb can house close to 80,000 African bees, with a Queen that will lay close to 30,000 eggs per day. CEMETERY DEBUSHING There is also need for de-bushing the area, and GSWMP Coordinator Gordon Gilkes noted that labour for the bebushing exercise would partly be drawn from the Prison Service, whose labourers would be provided with the necessary safety equipment for dealing with the current situation at the cemetery. Minister Whittaker explained that the works would not be undertaken solely by the Prison Service, but other community groups would be contracted to work along with the contract holders, while the LGRD Ministry would employ a Clerk of Works to oversee effective discharge of the works.

Senior Superintendent Samuels of the Georgetown Prison Service explained that the LGRD Ministry is currently in talks with the Prison Service to acquire close to 20 prisoners to begin working on this clean-up project from Monday, “providing that they finalise the logistics in terms of payment and so forth.” This vigorous and expansive project will focus on restoration of the cemetery in its entirety. The cemetery is bordered by Princes Street to the north, Sussex Street to the south, St. Stephen Street to the west, and Mandela Avenue to the east. The internal drainage system of the cemetery is integral, since it flows directly into the Sussex Street Canal. A later aspect of the project will see the roads in the cemetery being made accessible for commuting.

BERBICE MATTERS

Police B Division Sukhdia Mohabir dies at 103 continues community outreach …fetes War veteran , centenarian amongst other elderly citizens in East Canje

Officers Guy Nurse and Gregory Springer , along with Corporal Randy and the senior citizens

IN an effort to bridge the gap between the Guyana Police Force and the community, the Berbice Division, led by Commander Assistant Commissioner Brian Joseph, and Second in Command, Senior Superintendent Marlon Chapman, have created new initiatives, aimed at improving community relationships through varying outreaches. Through a recently formed youth Club, the law enforcement department, teamed up with the East Canje Humanitarian Council, at the Goed Bananenland Community Centre, to bring much delight by distributing hampers which included

nutritional supplements, icecream and other delicacies, to 95-year- old war veteran James Daniels, centenarian Phulkalie Benni of Number Two Village, and other senior citizens drawn from East Canje locations. Speaking at the gathering, Officer in Charge Assistant Superintendent, Guy Nurse congratulated the ten senior citizens for their longevity, as collectively they have attained just over 900 years. Extending best wishes on behalf of his superiors and other ranks, the Officer reminded the senior citizens that the police are not just about detaining, prosecuting and getting convictions, but also assisting with person’s

welfare. During the lively interaction, held in the presence of Chief Inspector Gregory Springer, and Corporal Randy Hamilton, the elderly were asked to reveal their secrets for long life, and many noted it was hard work. Meanwhile, the other beneficiaries were Rachel Michael, 95, of Betsy Ground, Harold Bisssoon, 94, of Goed Bananenland, Mangru Seeperasud, 94, of Canefield, Alma Victor, 93, of Goed Bananenland, Myra Grant, 88, of Canefield, Sukhdya Ramdehol, 86, of Betsy Ground, Surujdai Tullakarnum, 86, of Canefield, and Gladys Sancharie, 80, of Reliance.

ONE of Guyana’s of Guyana’s oldest citizens, Sukhdia Mohabir, of 86 Canefield, East Canje, died recently after she lived a full life, succumbing peacefully at age 103. Born at Plantation Mara, East Bank Berbice, on December 30,1909, the century plus achiever was the second of six children, which consisted of an equal number of boys and girls. Although she was married at the tender age of eleven, and had outlived her husband, the couple remained childless. The woman, up to the time of her death, cleaned, laundered and ironed her clothing, and was also fluent in the Hindi language. Last year, when the Guyana Chronicle visited on her 102nd birthday, the East Canje widow had lamented the division among the ethnic groups today. The bespectacled petite woman, who was then in good health apart from a slight hearing impairment, said that being the first of six children born to Indian immigrants, she never had the opportunity to attend any learning institution as she had to assist her parents with the siblings. Her mother, a weeder, and her father, a cane-harvester, would leave their home very early for the backlands, leaving her in charge at their home at High Dam, Fyrish, Corentyne. She recalled of being told that the family previously lived at Mara, an agricultural community on the East Bank of Berbice, prior to them moving to Corentyne when she was just three months old.

Sukhdai Mohabir

‘At Fyrish, we lived like a family with the other ethnic groups. We were all contented with what we possessed. But now is a lot of cussing and fighting and discontent. People grudge one another for everything. Is a sad state we are in.’ ‘Pua’, as she was fondly called, recalled too, of her marriage to Mohabir [one name] at age 11 years, and her labour in the backlands. ‘Me worked hard as a weeder and cane harvester. Me blow punt too. When me finish in the backdam, me would go home and plant rice, and vegetables. Me eat what me plant. Now, them a put nuff fertiliser on them plant. It a kill u slowly. Me na like the greens, nor the chicken …too much fertiliser.’ The centenarian had recounted that although she worked hard in the backlands, she was without a pension due to an abdominal surgery which occurred when she was still very young, forcing her to leave

the estate. However, while at home, she supplemented her husband’s earning as a cane harvester and barber to assist with their niece and adopted daughter Latchmin, who is now residing in England with her two grandchildren, Lenox and Reshanna. With a smile she recalled the various excursions she attended with the residents of Fyrish and then Canefield when she took up residence there over sixty years ago. ‘We would sport a lot. Excursions to Parmaribo, Suriname, Wismar, Georgetown, all over we went. We would sing and play the music with the tassa drum. Me daughter, we had lots of fun. We used to dance too. Now, them young people nah enjoy themselves, is loud music, half naked dress, nuff rum and fight.” Meanwhile, as ‘Pua’ drew her last breath, she did so with a smile on her face, knowing that she lived a full life,’ said her care-giver Kuntee Baijnauth.

Following Berbice Expo…

Central Corentyne Chamber seeks to have permanent exhibition site THE recently held Berbice Exposition and Trade Fair has been a resounding success, forcing its organisers to seek a permanent exhibition site by 2016. In a review, President Tajpaul Adjodhea noted that the high cost of building and dismantling structures after the four-day event has caused his team to seek Government’s assistance in seeking a location for a permanent edifice, which can be used for multiple purposes. ‘The overhead cost to host the venture is $15M, but much

Berbice Expo

has to be expended on building the respective booths and then dismantling them. Remember this is a cricket ground. We get it for just two weeks before the event, and we have to hand it over shortly thereafter.’ ‘We need a permanent structure, where we can have adequate parking and in an event of inclement weather, there would not be many challenges.’ Adjodhea while thanking Berbicians for their continual support, issued a call to other businesses, whether small, medium, or large, to take up

the mantle and use the exposition to promote their respective businesses. The significance of Berbice Expo and Trade Fair serves as a platform for sales, networking and negotiation, as it seeks to establish business contacts while promoting and producing services. The Berbice Exposition and Trade Fair, was birthed months after the formation of the Corentyne Chamber of Commerce [ CCCC], which was founded in November 2004. The CCCC catchment spans from Borlam Turn to

Tarlogie Villages, along the Corentyne coastline. It is a non-political, non-religious, non-partisan organisation, willing to work with any organisation whose focus is the development of Berbice and Guyana. Some of the organisation’s plans includes the industrial site in the Central Corentyne area, the establishment of a municipal airport, improving sanitation and garbage disposal by organising clean-up campaign and installing garbage bins around the community.

POLICE in 'A' Division on Tuesday commenced a five-day camp for children of Rosemary Lane (Tiger Bay) and Albouystown as part of the Impact Project. This camp is not the regular annual police camp which caters for children from all across the country. While the Impact project was not fully implemented in the Tiger Bay area, this camp does have a large

representation from that community, since the police increased its relationship with that community over the past three months. Speaking with the Guyana Chronicle on the camp site on Tuesday, the young people from both of the selected communities expressed their appreciation to the Force for involving them in such a way, and moreso for keeping a special camp to cater for them outside of the normal police camp. Among the expectations

of the young minds, which range from ages 12 to 17, are knowledge in the areas of Home Economics, art and craft, carpentry and mason. The camp has 23 females and 34 males, with several supervisors, inclusive of police, parents, and members of the two communities. The security arrangement at the camp site is also very good, and according to camp mother, Deputy Superintendent Denise Fowler, the rules of the camp will at all times be strictly enforced.

The camp will run for five days. Also giving their support to the camp is a trained consultant who has been working with young people for a number of years, and former Director of Prisons, Mr Dale Erskine. Erskine’s role at the camp will be offering guidance to the young people on the importance of developing skills to secure employment, and how to dwell in today’s environment. Today the children are expected to be exposed to art

and craft training conducted by a patron of the camp. Following conclusion of the ‘A’ Division Camp, the police annual camp will commence. That, too, will be held along the Soesdyke /Linden Highway; and for security reasons, the police have not yet decided to release information on the exact location of that camp. On Tuesday, ‘A’ Division Commander Clifton Hicken and supporters of the camp visited the camping site, toured the facility, and inter-

acted with the young people for close to two hours before heading back to the city. On the last day of the camp, the children will have an opportunity to put on display their art and craft products which they were able to create during their learning sessions. The camp will also feature games and career talks focusing on issues which affect present day society, namely domestic violence and youth gangs, among others.

‘D’ Division mixes policing with sports A DAY of sports, fun and social interaction between several youth groups in the Police ‘D’ Division and the police saw young p e o p l e f ro m L e o n o r a , We s t C o a s t D e m e r a r a

copping the lion’s share o f t ro p h i e s a n d o t h e r prizes. The prizes were donated by members of the business community and the police force. The In-

ter-Youth Club Athletics Championships held at Zeeburg ground on Sunday saw teams from Leonora, Parika, Vreed-en-Hoop, Den Amstel and La Grange. Among the activities

were sprints and novel events in which Leonora was the overall winning team, copping the top position on every occasion. Individuals as well as teams placing first, second

and third were rewarded for their efforts. The event was attended by nearly 200 young people. Meanwhile earlier last week the division also held its domino competi-

tion at the Leonora Police Station where teams featured represented Special Constabulary, Divisional Headquarters and community policing groups. (Leroy Smith)

17-yr-old stabbed to death S E V E N TEEN-YEAR-OLD Alex Narine of Columbia Village, Essequibo Coast was brutally stabbed to death Monday afternoon just after 15:00hrs while he was involved in an argument with another man over a computer on an old paddy drying floor which is used as a sports ground by residents in the Anna Regina Housing Scheme. Reports said the teenager who was in love with a 13-year-old girl had gone to the village to visit her but ended up in an argument with another man on the drying floor over a

computer and was fatally stabbed in his back. According to reports the lifeless body of the teenager was discovered by residents with a stab wound in the back at around 15:30hrs lying on the main roadway to the village. The police were summoned to the scene and the body of the teenager was taken to the Suddie Hospital where doctors pronounced him dead on arrival. However relatives of the dead teenager are claiming that if police had allowed them to take him to the hospital promptly he would have received

medical attention and still be alive. The teenager who worked in the interior was deeply in love with the 13-year-old girl who is still attending school. He would usually visit the housing scheme to see her. On Monday he left home at around 08:00hrs to see her but never knew it was the last time he would have had the opportunity. Meanwhile, several residents of Anna Regina Housing Scheme are calling on the police to take swift action to eradicate a growing bush rum business in the area. They said the cheap illegal rum is causing some young men to be drinking everyday at the drying floor area which is creating several problems for law-abiding persons in the village. Residents said the murder of the teenager can be linked to drunkenness caused by the cheap bush rum that is sold publicly without regard for the laws of the country. Only recently another young man was stabbed to death in a ‘hideout’ rum shop in the village during an argument. A long knife that was used to peel green mangoes to be as ‘cutters’ for drinkers in the shop was used as the murder weapon.

Aries - March 21 - April 19 Your straightforward side may be sidetracked now while your mind -- or possibly your heart -- indulges in some fantastical stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with fantasy, mind you. In fact, it expands your thoughts and feelings, and can even leak some sweet stuff over into regular reality. It's when you get carried away that things can get a bit problematic. Ask a grounded friend for a reality check. Taurus - April 20 - May 20 You're fully prepared to assume the consequences of talking about that secret you've been trying to hide for far too long. But before you open up and let the world know what's on your mind, be sure you're not betraying a confidence. You know how seriously you take the issue of loyalty? Well, the folks you've become close to feel the same way. It's not surprising, either. After all, you trained them. Gemini - May 21 - June 21 When was the last time you took an entire day off, just because you felt like it? If you can't remember, it's been too long. But you knew that. If there's nothing pressing at work you have to do, think about taking a 'mental health' day -- and don't let yourself feel guilty about it. Whether you switch shifts with someone or just promise to work extra hard tomorrow, do it. It's time to take a break, for real. Cancer - June 22 - July 22 There's a difference between gossip and conversation -- and up until late tonight, you'll definitely be in the mood for gossip. Not that you want to run anyone into the ground, of course, but exchanging a few choice tidbits -- especially if the party in question happens to be sitting right there, directly across from you -- would certainly be fun. No fair only talking about others, though. Reveal something equally juicy about yourself. Leo - July 23 - August 22 For some reason, individuals of a certain type seem to be gravitating toward you. You've just about had it with listening to sad stories, pleas for redemption and promise to do better next time. That kind of energy just seems to follow you around right now. Practice saying no and walking away. It might be tough to master at first, but you'll get the hang of it eventually. Virgo - August 23 - September 22 The heavens will offer you a mixed bag of energies today, but that kind of energetic potpourri suits you just fine. You're ready for anything, at this point. You've been positively chomping at the bit for weeks, just dying for a taste of anything and everything that's new and interesting. That goes double for new company, by the way -- and that, at least, can be easily addressed. Go on out and find that intriguing new soul you seek. Libra - September 23 - October 22 You're not quite sure what's gotten into you, and neither are your dear ones. All of a sudden, you're determined to win, no matter what the cost, and you're thinking twice before you open your mouth and let your true feelings slide out. No, it's certainly not typical, but it's not exactly out of character, either. After all, when was the last time -- or the first -- that anyone accused you of being timid? Scorpio - October 23 - November 21 Still focused on that object that's the perfect gift for a dear one? Or are you now officially ready to admit you're obsessed with it? For you, there's a fine line between those two sentiments. Today, it's going to be even finer. Fortunately, you're beginning to sense the existence of an alternative. Talk to a friend, and don't you dare go shopping alone -- not under any circumstances. Sagittarius - November 22 - December 20 You've always been famous for jumping on the moment -- for taking advantage of whatever the universe has tossed your way and being happy with however it ends up. So tonight, when a certain person crosses your path quite unexpectedly, you'll be only too happy to explore the possibilities. Just be sure you can go into work late before you really pull out all the stops. Capricorn - December 21 - January 19 You'll be exhibiting some very peculiar characteristics today: nostalgia, sentimentality and a desire to return to the past. No, that doesn't sound at all like you. But remember, even you get to express all your unfiltered feelings every now and then. It's just officially your turn right now. Oh, and when your dear ones look a bit troubled, tell them not to worry. This, too, shall pass. Aquarius - January 20 - February 18 You may be feeling a bit rebellious -- okay, a bit more rebellious -- but you've certainly earned it. So when a dear one comes to you, expecting you to back down just because they say so, try not to laugh out loud, and don't be rude. Just explain, plainly and simply, that you've never been fond of shoulds, and that you hear 'don't' as an invitation to break the rules. Pisces - February 19 - March 20 Play your cards right, and you'll end up with an instant replay of last night's fun. Then again, play them any way at all, and you'll probably get the same effect. So what's the hold up? Do you really not want to experience all that good stuff all over again? Sure you do. Go ahead and pick out a new outfit, and a new bottle of wine, and get ready to intensify this delicious new connection.

GUYANA’S Alpha United only have themselves to blame for their 1–0 loss to CD Olimpia of Honduras in the 201415 CONCACAF Champions League when the two met at the Guyana National Stadium on Tuesday night. It was the first game of the CONCACAF showpiece which features the top clubs from North and Central America along with the Caribbean. Coming up against Honduras’ most decorated club, Alpha United did everything but scored while being a little unlucky, after a gauche situation in 17th minute resulted in Honduras National Under-20 stalwart Alberth Elis scoring the game’s lone goal. “We didn’t make use of our chances and didn’t work collectively,” explained Alpha’s coach Wayne Dover while speaking at the post-match press conference. Dover’s men, especially Kithson Baine and Daniel Wilson, were guilty of squandering some certain goal chances at both sides of the pitch. The Guyanese club were able to control the tempo of the game; something Dover said that they have been working on,

stating, “We have spent a lot of time doing the defensive organisation because for long spells they will have possession and we just have to be disciplined and be behind the ball and prevent them from creating many chances, because once they’re allowed to create many chances they will score.” In the second half, Dover replaced Daniel Wilson with Andrew Murray Jr, Sheldon Holder came in for captain Dwight Peters and Philbert Moffat took the field for defender Quincy Adams who suffered a cut to his forehead after a clash of heads with an opposition. CD Olimpia also utilised their three substitutions, replacing the goalscorer Elis with Anthony Lozano, Bayron Dionicio for Omar Guerra and Oscar Salas took the position of David Meza on the pitch. Unarguably one of the most successful coaches for both club and country, Dover was on point, given the fact that Olimpia were able to score on their only attempt on goal. Panamanian International 19-year-old Aldair Paredes was sensational in the midfield for Alpha United and the player who featured in the FIFA U-17 World Cup created a few chances of his own with the closest coming in the dying stages of the second half. With Alpha chasing an equalising goal, Paredes, struck a wonderfully timed rightfoot shot from approximately 25 yards out from goal and the on-target shot forced CD Olimpia keeper Donis Escober to pull off a daring save which

ensured that the score-line remained in the Hondurans’ favour. Escober was superb between the uprights and the keeper who featured for Honduras during the just concluded FIFA World Cup finals in Brazil was called upon to pull off several saves during the heated contest. CD Olimpia boasts at least five players who participated at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil and is Honduras top club having won the country’s Professional league title an unprecedented 27 times. Dover believes that though the result wasn’t in his team’s favour, the game was a success since they were able to contain a more oiled and ready CD Olimpia, especially in the second half. The two teams will meet again in the return game on Thursday August 28; but first, Alpha United will host Portland Timbers of the MLS on Tuesday August 19 at the Guyana National Stadium. Looking ahead at his next match, Dover said that he will have to work on his strikers finishing their clear-cut chances and hopefully get a more favourable result against one of Major League Soccer’s (MLS) top sides. “I would not get beside myself to say that we so much in need of a three-point that we will just open ourselves. We will be very patient, work diligently because with these pro teams, you can’t approach those games disrespectfully; it’s easy to get five goals,” Dover said.

First Test …

Younus century rescues struggling Pakistan

(REUTERS) - Pakistan’s experienced batsman Younus Khan dug deep for his 24th Test century and his seventh against Sri Lanka to rescue his struggling side who closed on 261-4 on the opening day of the first Test yesterday. Younus and his captain Misbah-ul-Haq (31) put together a partnership of 100 for the fourth wicket to stage a recovery after Sri Lanka grabbed the first three wickets for 56 runs. Following Misbah’s departure in the final session, Younus was joined by Asad Shafiq and they carried the total to 261 by the close after an unbeaten stand of 105. Younus was on 133 off 228 balls with 11 fours and a six while Shafiq had 55 off 110 balls with six fours and a six. Herath broke up the Younus-Misbah pairing when the Pakistan captain

drove at a tossed up delivery and edged the ball to wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella in the fourth over after tea. Seasoned campaigners Younus and Misbah had worked hard to rebuild Pakistan’s innings with an unbroken 84-run fourth-wicket stand that guided the tourists to 140 for three at tea. Younus reached the interval on 77, after his 29th Test fifty, and Misbah on 22 as they batted through the afternoon session to add 81 runs after Pakistan lost three early wickets. Both batsmen rode their luck with Younus benefiting the most, surviving two lbw decisions and a dropped catch to hit five fours and a six in his 146-ball knock. Soon after lunch, Misbah and Younus survived lbw appeals off the bowling of Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews. Misbah had yet to score

when a delivery hit him on the front pad but the Pakistan skipper was given not out. Sri Lanka called for a review which backed up the umpire’s call. In his next over, Mathews jagged one back at Younus, on 20, hitting him on the back foot in front of the wicket but Sri Lanka opted against a review with television replays suggesting the ball would have gone on to hit the middle stump. Younus then used a review to survive another lbw decision on 59, this time against Dilruwan Perera, whom he had hit for three consecutive fours in a 14-run over to reach his half-century. Younus got a fourth life on reaching 68 after he reverse-swept Perera to Mahela Jayawardene at slip but the fielder could not hold on to the difficult chance. Earlier, Sri Lanka paceman Dhammika Prasad

After a delayed start due to a wet outfield, Pakistan lost both openers to Prasad within the first hour of play, during which they managed

just 22 runs. Prasad, coming in for the injured Suranga Lakmal, troubled Pakistan’s batsmen with his pitched-up inswingers. He had Ahmed Shehzad (four) playing on to a delivery with the team’s score on four and later trapped

Khurram Manzoor leg-before for three to reduce Pakistan to 19-2. Younus joined Azhar Ali in a partnership of 37 before Herath separated them, removing the latter for 30 with a fine delivery that beat the bat and kissed the off stump.

Satisfied ICC will not appeal Anderson verdict … says appeal will serve no purpose (REUTERS) - The International Cricket Council (ICC) has ruled out launching an appeal against the decision to clear England fast bowler James Anderson of a code of conduct breach, adding that it was satisfied with the judicial commissioner’s verdict. Anderson and India’s Ravindra Jadeja were involved in an altercation during the first Test at Trent Bridge last month but both players were found not guilty of misconduct after a six-hour video-conference hearing on Friday. “This outcome is the result of two exhaustive and thorough disciplinary processes and, after considering the written decision, the ICC is satisfied with the manner in which the decisions have been reached,” ICC chief executive Dave Richardson said in a statement. The ICC’s stance will upset the Indian cricket board (BCCI), who wrote to the governing body ex-

there was no merit in an appeal and it would not be prudent to drag the matter out.

ICC chief executive David Richardson pressing their displeasure once Anderson was cleared to continue playing when the paceman faced a ban of up to four Tests if found guilty. The hearing of the case was held under Gordon Lewis and was also attended by the two team managers and representatives of the England and Wales Cricket Board and the BCCI. The ICC said it believed

‘ROBUST AND TRANSPARENT’ “It was a complicated and sensitive matter ... There appears to have been vastly conflicting evidence on both sides, with a total of 13 witnesses who gave testimony,” Richardson added. “After carefully considering the decision by Gordon Lewis, whose vast experience was invaluable to the process over recent weeks, we believe that no further purpose would be served by prolonging the process through further appeal proceedings. “The disciplinary procedures were robust and transparent and all parties had ample opportunity to ask questions, test the evidence and make submissions. “We have determined that there is no merit in an appeal and that it would

not be in the best interest of the sport to take such action.” Richardson, however, cautioned the cricketers against the use of offensive language on the field, which, according to media reports, was personal and extensive. “International cricket is tough, competitive and

uncompromising but we must reiterate that there is no place in the game for the use of offensive language that is personally insulting of one player by another,” the former South Africa wicketkeeper added. “It is imperative that all captains, players and coaches as well as umpires and referees are reminded

of and do not shirk their responsibility to one another and to the game.” Lancashire paceman Anderson is the leading wicket-taker in the series with 16 victims and will play his home Test at Old Trafford, Manchester, today. The five-match series is level at 1-1.

The sport of darts currently at a standstill - GDA president DESPITE the intentions of broadening the horizons for the sport of darts in Guyana, the Guyana Darts Association (GDA) currently remains stagnant due to the lack of financial support and functioning members. A five-year strategic plan to popularise the sport around the country is also being plagued with serious issues that need to be sorted out soon. According to GDA president Grantley Culbard, after the elections in 2012, nothing much has happened other than Guyana failing

to be represented at the just concluded Caribbean championships and the world cup in Canada due to players not able to acquire visas to travel. While the interest of the sport is there the president mentioned that getting people to take up responsibilities in the association remains a problem. The association as it is operates without a secretary while members who were elected to function after the elections also left and never returned. Despite all this, Culbard remains confident that

things will improve for the sport since there are businesses who have already signalled their intentions to give financial support. Talks with the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, however, remain a challenge as it relates to having the sport included in the school system since darts can easily be used as a weapon. The annual Mashramani Darts Classic held on February 21 and 22 this year was the last competition held by the association, with the next scheduled for November (Jadon Samuels)..

KK Warriors edge Mocha, Soesdyke Falcons hammer Herstelling THE BATTLE for supremacy in the Stag Beer/ East Bank Football Association division one league continued last Sunday at the Grove Playfield with two matches. In an exciting feature match Kuru Kururu Warriors came from behind on two occasions to defeat a game Mocha Champs 3-2. The opening game produced a comfortable 4-0 win for Soesdyke Falcons over Herstelling. Mocha, yet to register a point in this the second and final round of the league, took the lead in the 5th minute through a Sherwin

Fordyce goal as they signalled early intentions that they were going to take the fight to their opponents. Mocha looked a well-organised unit while the Warriors took some time to get into stride. The Linden Soesdyke Highway-based Warriors drew level in the 37th minute. R. Haimnauth, who had looked very organized playing left side midfield, breached the Mocha defence. The halftime whistle sounded without further changes to the score line. Both sides improved in defensive third but as the

R. Haimnauth and C. Johnson

game progressed the fitness of players was coming into focus. Mocha took back the lead in the 75th minute through an own goal that came off the boot of warrior D. Roberts. Not content to allow Mocha an easy ride, the Warriors again equalised six minutes later when C. Johnson rocked the nets on the 81st minute. Now sensing that they were the fitter of the two sides, the Warriors upped their offensive game. That pressure saw Mocha score against themselves in the 84th minute, Dwayne Layne being the

culprit. In the few remaining minutes, Kuru Kururu Warriors were able to defend their lead as Mocha’s efforts to at least take a share of the points proved futile and the Warriors came away with full points. In the opening game, Soesdyke Falcons did not have any trouble in turning back the challenge of upstarts Herstelling. Goals by Colin Holder (33rd), Roger Dey (60th), Kisey Benson (70th) and Ulato Sam in the 80th minute sealed the deal for the Falcons.

Bahamian ‘Golden Girl’ Ferguson appointed Cougars sprint coach Sprint legend Debbie Ferguson-McKenzie is heading to the University of Texas.

H O U S T O N , Te x a s (CMC) – Sprint legend Debbie Ferguson-McKenzie will transport her knowledge and expertise to the University of Houston. The university announced that the Bahamian has been hired as the women’s sprint and hurdles coach. She heads

to the Cougars from Southern Mississippi, where she spent the last year. “It feels like a fairy tale,” said McKenzie. “Like something you read in a book. But it’s real life. I’m looking forward to learning from the staff. I grew up watching (head coach) Leroy Burrell

and now I’m hired by him and he’s my boss and colleague. It’s a dream come true.” She added: “I want us to work hard, but also have fun. Our goal as a team is to be number one. It won’t be easy, but we have to keep pushing.” Burrell, the former 100 metres World record holder, said he felt the Cougars’ track programme needed a person with the calibre of Olympic experience that already exists on its staff as a role model for the women. “Debbie Ferguson-McK-

enzie provides that and then some,” he said. “Debbie will be a tremendous asset to Cougars track & field in her role not only as a coach and mentor to our female athletes, but she brings a wealth of recruiting connections not only in the Caribbean, but throughout the World. “We plan to thoroughly capitalise on those connections that she has fostered to build our programme to be among the elite programmes in collegiate track & field.” Ferguson-McKenzie was a specialist at the 100 and

200 metres sprints, representing the Bahamas in five Olympic Games – Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2000, Athens 2004, Beijing 2008 and London 2012 – and was a threetime Olympic medallist and four-time medallist at World Championships. She was also part of the Bahamas 4x100 women’s relay team, affectionately known as ‘the Golden Girls’, which won gold at the 1999 World Championships in Seville, Spain, and the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia.

Limacol CPL players looking to thrill the crowds in St Kitts … Amazon Warriors clash with Antigua Hawkbulls at 16:00hrs today

THE Limacol Caribbean Premier League players arrived in St Kitts this week and the players are going to continue to play the exciting and aggressive cricket that has been such a part of this year’s tournament. Ahead of today’s matches which see the Guyana Amazon Warriors take on Antigua Hawksbills at 16.00hrs and Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel play Barbados Tridents at 20.00hrs, players and coaches from the four teams spoke of their commitment to playing cricket that is positive, aggressive and continues to delight the crowds. Antigua Hawksbills head coach, Tim Nielsen, has been particularly impressed with the aggressive cricket that all teams have tried to play throughout the Limacol Caribbean Premier League and this had led to some excellent matches and a very lively

atmosphere in the grounds. Tim Nielsen said; “The standard of the cricket so far has been very high and great to watch, and the fielding in particular has really impressed me throughout the tournament. I have also been loving the atmosphere in the grounds – there is even a swimming pool here where the fans can watch cricket from - you just don’t get that in Australia.” Guyana Amazon Warriors head coach Roger Harper feels that the competition has been extremely well received this year across the Caribbean and the beautiful Warner Park stadium will provide a perfect climax to the tournament. Roger Harper said; “We are all looking forward to playing in St Kitts and want to use the two remaining group games to put in good performances and prepare ourselves for next week.

I have coached in the IPL and in Australia and I must say the Caribbean is the best. It may be my first season coaching in the CPL, but I would come back in a heartbeat next season.”(CPL)

GFF to fill vacant executive positions at Saturday’s Congress By Michael DaSilva THE Guyana Football Federation (GFF) will on Saturday elect persons to fill the vacancies created by the suspension, non-performance and/or resignation by elected members of its executive. In an exclusive interview with Chronicle Sport on Tuesday, the Federation’s president Christopher Matthias disclosed that when the Congress reconvenes on Saturday at the Regency Hotel, Hadfield Street, one of the main issues that will come up for discussion will be the filling of vacancies created by the suspension, resignation and non-performance of some of the elected executive members. Elected vice-presidents Collie Hercules, Rawlston Adams and Ivan Persaud could be replaced with new faces on the executive. According to Matthias, Hercules was suspended for a breach of the Federation’s constitution, Adams resigned for personal issues and Persaud has been reluctant to function in his capacity

Collie Hercules Other matters up for discussion on Saturday include the GFF’s GOAL project which got under way some years ago under then president Colin Klass with the acquisition of a piece of land and a building at East Bank, Essequibo but nothing more has been done to develop the land even though there are lots of promises and proposals. However, the Matthias administration is seeking to work out a deal with the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport for a 10-acre piece of land, just behind the Synthetic facility that is being

constructed at Leonora, West Coast Demerara for the construction of a training facility, a hostel to house local and internationals teams as well as lecture and dining halls, among other things. Matthias said all the proposals are currently with the sports ministry and the GFF is awaiting word from that ministry. Another matter of interest to be discussed is the audited financial report by the Ram and McRae Company. The reconvened Congress on Saturday will be conducted by Federation International Football Associations (FIFA) guidelines, Matthias stated, adding, “there will be an international presence as FIFA has responded favourably to the GFF’s request to send officials.” The GFF called its Congress in April of this year but it had to be adjourned after a no-confidence vote, moved by some associations against Matthias, failed to get the required number of votes to oust him. However, the following month, the associations which wanted to see the back of

Rawlston Adams Matthias called a reconvened Congress which was held at the Waterchris Hotel and at which the media was locked out and surprisingly Persaud was elected to replace Matthias in the capacity of acting president until an election is called in 60 days time. That meeting was not attended by the West Demerara Football Association. At the so-called Congress, the Georgetown Football Association was represented by its president Vernon Burnett and general secretary Odinga Lumumba. West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) secretary Elson Kairattie was also present at the meeting that also saw participation from the East

Demerara Football Association, National Association of Women’s Football, Guyana Football Referees Council and Guyana Football Coaches Association - forming two-thirds of the General Congress, But according to WDFA’s president Nigel Garraway, his association had no knowledge of such a meeting or Congress being held in the first place, and as far as he was aware, only the GFF has the authority to reconvene the Congress. He said he spoke to his association’s secretary at 10:00hrs that day and still he didn’t know that the secretary was present at the meeting. Garraway in an invited comment had said that as far as he was aware the WDFA participation at that Congress on Saturday was null and void. Meanwhile, Charmine Wade, assistant secretary/ treasurer of the GFA in an email had said she was not and has not been part of any decisions, or had any discussions on this issue of the GFF’s Congress, the motion

Ivan Persaud of No Confidence against the GFF’s Executives, etc, at the level of the executive of the GFA. “As far as I’m aware, unless I wasn’t invited, there was never a meeting of the GFA Executive and/ or general council to discuss this issue,” Wade had stated, adding “Further, I had no knowledge of the alleged reconvening of ‘Congress’ and to date, have not been informed/notified by the president, general secretary or any other executives of the GFA,” Wade insisted.
