Dear Editor,
The future leader of the opposition has made some very serious claims about corruption and wealth on display from ill-gotten gain. Who will conduct an unbiased investigation into this? Will it be the Attorney General who has just reaffirmed at the United Nations our country’s commitment against graft, or will it be a neutral third party with the capabilities of the FBI? Either way an impartial investigation must be carried out, or it must be done thoroughly, transparently and in a timely manner.
It is very unfortunate what is taking place, especially while many Guyanese are looking forward to our country improving. The President must find a way to clean up Guyana and if the means to do so do not exist within our borders, then he must leverage our international partners to get this accomplished. China is currently going through this process, which is being led by their President, and unfortunately Guyana must do the same.
The matter raised by the future leader of the opposition is a very serious one, and it echoes the cries of the public from over the past 10 years of extensive corruption during this period of our country’s growth. The time has come for an example to be made of those who have pilfered our homeland.
