-37 resignations in two years
Local exporters are calling for a dialogue with President Irfaan Ali about the operations at the Guyana Marketing Corporation (GMC) which they say is being run like a ‘doll house’ resulting in some 37 staff members resigning over a two-year period.
According to some exporters, the General Manager (GM) of the Guyana Marketing Corporation, Teshawna Lall, does not fully understand the role of the GMC, while senior officials within the agriculture sector have commented that the GMC is in the “worst possible state” since the entity’s existence.
However, when contacted, Lall insisted that they have been working to create linkages monthly and informed that the staff loss has been to the oil and gas sector. She also strongly denied allegations of a double payment of $10 million being made to an individual and that drivers are not receiving meal allowances.
