Murder in Guyana, killings in New York
I speak – and write here – with more than reasonable authority. Because I was appointed to act as the Chief Information Officer (CI0) in the then Ministry of Information for several years from 1979.
My PNC government did what governments did during and after its authoritarian time: Use (d) the state-funded Guyana Chronicle as a premier party/ Government news and information organ!
As CI0 I once experienced a feisty female PNC Information Minister physically lounging in the chair of the Chronicle’s late Editor-in- Chief Courtney Gibson and “suggesting” to him the content and captions for the next day’s ‘paper! (Others used the telephone.)
