Dear Editor,
In Lethem we voted for President David Granger because we felt that he was a righteous man; we liked what he told us at the meetings he had in the region. But I feel that he has fooled us.
Region 9 is still full of corrupt officers. He said he would clean out the place, but every day we have to look at the same officers that had oppressed us. Many people tell me that they have problems with these same officers. It is hard to get paid.
Then we had our heritage the other night. That was no heritage; that was a PPP meeting. The former REO was there, the MP was there, other PPP people were there, all at the head table. No APNU or AFC people were there. The heritage turned out to be a coastlander party, with all that vulgar music, and no Amerindian songs.
The APNU people are not coming to tell us anything. We are right next door and we don’t see them any more. The President has to let our APNU politicians come and visit us; we need them to tell us what the party is doing. We know what the government is doing but not the party.
I want to let the President know that there are many people talking of leaving the party and joining the AFC because they don’t like what APNU is doing.
Yours faithfully,
Patricia Camildo
