Mr Ogunseye’s approach in rejecting compromise and realpolitik as reflected in the day-to-day struggle for a better Guyana leaves the political arena open to the worst elements in our midst

Dear Editor,

Tacuma Ogunseye in his letter captioned “Minister Rohee seems to be losing control” (08.03.14) set out to discredit me in the eyes of the readership of your newspaper.

From time immemorial, it has been the practice worldwide for opposition elements of all sorts to hurl insults, innuendoes, and abuse at persons serving in government. I had my days in such ventures while the PPP was in the opposition. It is the nature of politics.
