Disputing reports of the deplorable state of the Skeldon Estate, former President Donald Ramotar yesterday charged that the Guyana Sugar Corporation’s (GuySuCo) reported plan to either sell or diversify it was just part of the APNU+AFC government’s plan to shut down the sugar industry.
“I find it very strange that they are speaking of Skeldon Factory as the state it is in like that because only last year they mentioned how well the factory performed and had credited that because there (was) political interference, now today it made a 180 (degree turn) and (it) is that bad?,” Ramotar questioned.
