A few days ago, there was an appeal for Guyanese to temporarily change their profile pictures on social media to the map of Guyana with the slogan “One Guyana”. In a time when there is a threat to our national security it seems political agendas cannot be put aside for the unity of our nation.
“One Guyana” is a political slogan. It is not our motto. Guyanese have seen that even though it purports to be one thing to unite us, in fact it is not. Many have concluded that “One Guyana” really means for “one group of people.”
