Dear Editor,
Azruddin Mohammed and his father are on the brink of extradition to The United States of America to answer serious charges brought against them, but they are not about giving in just yet, they are trying every trick available to them to avoid the inevitable. So far, they have been unsuccessful in their quest to divert attention from the issue, even to the remote possibility that The Americans might somehow give him a free pass, but that is not forthcoming. So, to keep hope alive they are coming up with newer propaganda theories here on the local scene. He is fooling the people that the quest to have him extradited to The USA is all a vindictive plan concocted by The PPP/C Government to keep him out of politics.
But this is furthest from the truth, because coming into politics does not exculpate The Mohammeds from prosecution, instead, it indites him, so Mr. Mohammed has now embarked on a plan whereby he is in turning up at hotspots, such as The Amerindian Hostel, to sensationalize the problems that exist there. But this latest move exposes him as a hypocrite of the worst order; he fails to realize that this has backfired on him. Turning up in places just to put the government in a bad light will not help his case, rather, it hurts it, Azruddin Mohammed has the resources to correct the said fault he advocates, so why can’t he fix it?
Before his entrance into politics, he presented himself as an angel of hope and light, one who is a saviour of a country called Guyana, so why did he stop his philantropic efforts now that he is part of government? But it all goes to show what The Mohammeds motive were, that is, to save themselves and their empire that was built on fraud and nothing of interest for the people.
He is now harping away at the narrative that The PPP/C Government has placed an injunction on his swearing in as leader of the opposition, in that narrative he peddles the idea that the government has done this due to its fear of him being opposition leader. But what Azruddin Mohammed is not telling the people is that swearing him in as opposition leader shows complicit behaviour of the government and people of Guyana with The Mohammeds; something we cannot allow to happen.
The clear message here is, an entire country risks falling into sanction as a result of being in collaboration with The Mohammeds. We are not going to swear him in, nor are we to become a shield for criminals.
At this stage of his extradition The Mohammeds will clutch at straws, any straw for that matter, and this is one of them. As a nation we would not be drawn into the Mohammeds sordid sanction story, so, let The Mohammeds face their extradition matter as men and not hide behind the facade of an opposition leader, come clean before The People of Guyana
