Dear Editor,
As usual, in everything we do, there will be agreement or disagreement, and my recent letter calling for the removal of certain persons holding on to office and not functioning properly caused quite a few people to voice their opinion towards me personally. I’ve never been scared to express my concerns anywhere so my defence was if you don’t want a president to hold onto power for over two terms (10 years), why should they hold a position for longer than that period? Aren’t they denying others from getting an equal opportunity? No doubt, even though new ones could be or get corrupted, they might have new ideas.
Editor, repeatedly I’ve questioned why are we getting, food items that are expiring or close to being expired and at a very high price in this country. I must say I welcome the move that has been made against Dr. Marlan Cole, the former Director of the Government Analyst-Food and Drug Department (GA-FDD). Over the years, he’s been involved in too many conflicts, which to my mind, signalled an abuse of powers. There are other places that the government should take full control of.
Government should seriously look into the Childcare and Protection agency and fix it, even if they have to do similar as in Marlan Cole’s situation.
Yours faithfully,
Sahadeo Bates
