Dear Editor,
President Bharrat Jagdeo, in his brief remarks at the swearing in ceremony of newly appointed Ministers, Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Pauline Sukhai of the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs had this to say, “…their appointments were due to hard work…”.
The President also stated that he was impressed with the quality of work these ladies put out.
These comments caused me to reflect on the role of, arguably, one the most popular females in the PPP/C’s government, Gail Teixeira. I, therefore, wonder whether the President does not feel the same way about Ms Teixeira. Or is it that Gail’s ability to be “ministerially” productive has been retarded or seriously challenged.
