You, Mr President, are a Churchman, you believe in God the Supreme, the Creator and Destroyer and those who would delude themselves that they would live forever, must realize that when that day comes, you can’t take a single thing with you – you come in this world with nothing and you leave with nothing and all that is left is what you have done for the people on earth. You still have the opportunity to redeem yourself and the Lord, the Creator is very generous to those who have always given to the less fortunate.
Extract of Yesu Persaud’s letter to the President
It has been 28 days since general and regional elections were held in Guyana. However, the results are yet to be officially declared to enable a new government to be formed to manage the affairs of the State for the next five years. During the week of the elections, GECOM had announced the results for all the regions, except Region 4, which the international and local observers as well as the political parties contesting the elections did not have any difficulty accepting as transparent and credible.
