Dear Editor,
In response to Mr Jinnah Rahman’s letter of June 22 (SN, ‘The Movement for Political and Economic Democracy promotes the idea of a government of national unity and reconstruction’), I must say that in all my years of political involvement in Guyana, I have never read such nonsense, but I excuse Mr Rahaman for trying to put words in my mouth which I never stated. When did I ever endorse Mr Ramotar? When did I ever say that shared coalition governance is only for the PNC and the PPP alone? And let him tell us why he parted company with the PPP because it wasn’t for spouting communism. This man lives in the past looking for the return of communism. The Wizard of Oz is better for Guyana than Stalinist socialism and Mr Rahman had better put that in his pipe and smoke it.
Yours faithfully,
Cheddi (Joey) Jagan (Jr)
