QUIET CONFLICTS:
A people, grace the political gatherings of the known
dishonest government. They applaud at their deceitful words. They are
entertained. It is the destruction - pains and sufferings they invite upon
themselves. So many times in history, such types of men are elected. Perils are
their companion.
My country have such men and women. The Clique of Ramotar/
Jagdeo. They may well have your pains and sufferings written for you. You see
their corruption and yet you act dumb to it. You gather to them, as the day
Christ was crucified in Jerusalem. Madness. Utter madness. I see your
adulations.
Twisted words pleases you. Be curious. Search the words,
peeling off the lips of the fear mongers.
This country has already seen a man like Jagdeo.
Afro-Guyanese can attest to the man who fashioned words and
sentences –beautiful when dropping from his lips. They too were entertained.
Then the entertainer became the task master. Forbes was that Man. Under his regime, every citizen, subordinate
to the Kabaka, had to manage their sufferings-coolie people and black people
alike.
East Indians, I ask of you again. Give your vote to the
APNU+AFC. You will rid yourself of Ramotar/Jagdeo Clique and re-take the
Peoples Progressive Party. You cannot allow the Godless to strip you of your
freedom. Do not live in your memories of the Jagans-then you are already dead
as they are. And you would have handed over your children to the evil deeds of
the Ramotar/Jagdeo Clique.
In 1950, our hearts and minds were poisoned by
extremists. Evil Godless people who
brought a dangerous ideology to us. They sought to remove God from the society.
And their vision became a division (di-vision).
When the defenses of God are removed, mankind is left to the
wiles of the devil. Chaos will become the norm.
And chaos we have had since.
In 1955, the Split between Forbes and Cheddie fractured the
peaceful co-existence of Afro and Indo Guyanese. By this time, East Indians had
lived 117 years among the Afro, in the villages, city and town.
The genesis of quiet conflicts.
Ordinary citizens paid the ultimate prize for false
rhetoric.
Freedom, is not about politics. It is the duty and rights of
citizens to defend it. Freedom is your homes, your wives and your children.
Your faith in God.
It was a Foreigner who came to us from Chicago-Godless in
her beliefs. A Stalinist, determined to mold us to her visions of a utopian
society.
In 1953, a boy of 8 years. I listened to the radio as the
Governor gave his speech on why he suspended the constitution. Everything he said was true. I saw it all.
Subversive materials. I distributed it. Unlawful to be in
possession of. My father would hid it away so that the police raids couldn’t
find it.
Banned Public gatherings. My father ignored the order and
flew huge red flag, advertising a public meeting.
Letters of Intimidation. I transcribed them.
Prohibited from displaying the portrait of Josef Stalin. My
father would carry it around his neck in full view of the Governor.
Sabotage. My father was accused of attempting to dynamite
Blairmont Sugar Factory.
David Rose came with the Detained Oder very early one
morning in 1954 and took him away to Mazaruni.
As the governor continued to read, citizens became aware of
events that took place unknowing to them.
The frequent trips the Jagans made to the Soviet Union.
Honouring and singing songs of praise not to God but Josef Stalin. A man who
killed millions of his own people.
The entrenched Jagans, would be subversives. Their quiet
conflicts with Burnham’s PNC.
Death was part of the culture of the communists. Guyana would
have its share of death. More the conflicts. More the possibility of death.
More the Jagans Peoples Progressive Party would cultivate the minds of the East
Indians. Added to the Enmore Martyrs would be the Ballot Box Martyrs, Michael
Forde killing, Wismar Massacre, the arrest and trials for treasonable acts.
All this made to appear, as if it was the complete fault of
the tyrant Forbes Burnham. Agitators were constantly at work.
Forbes was a member of the Jagans PPP, he knew the
capabilities and dangers he was up against. And he prepared for it.
Cheddie played into Forbes hands.
The communist agenda of the Jagans disturbed the West
tremendously. The British Army was deployed. Searched the homes of East Indian.
Confiscated their guns. Considered no longer a threat to the PNC, Forbes Burnham
was free of any possible overthrow by the PPP. The Americans would modernize the Volunteer Force
into the Guyana Defence Force.
Another set of Quiet Conflicts.
The Jagans would recruit young East Indians for scholarships
to the Soviet Union. A special university set up for indoctrination-Patrice
Lumumba University. Lectures on the values of Marxism and Leninism. Part of the
curriculum was the instruction of subversion. The Jagans would make frequent
trips to Moscow for progress reports. An army of subversives for the struggles
of Guyana’s Freedom.
Yet, another set of Quiet Conflicts.
Forbes would be prepared.
As the young men returned home, Forbes would see to it that
they were never employed. Those who did find work, were hounded by PPP
operatives. Labeled as sell outs. And at times bullied and threatened.
Today, you will find such men in Guyana. Ready to intimidate
the East Indians into submission. Into Cult Jagan – the godless, must never be
blotted out of the memory of the East Indians.
Quiet Conflicts are still present.
Forbes has been dead for some 30 years now, but the minds of
the Stalinist cannot perceive it. They were brainwashed of his misdeeds. They
are locked in time. The Ramotar/Jagdeo Clique are zombies-dead but yet walks.
It is time for these quiet conflicts to end.
East Indians you must vote APNU+AFC. By doing so, you will
displace the impostors of the Peoples Progressive Party.
Let it be known. For every year Forbes reigned, the Jagans
were responsible for it. Their refusal to depart from a Communist Ideology was
a Stubbornness. Communism died and they didn’t even know. The PPP they left
behind is Communist in structure-old and dilapidated. And the corruptible have
moved in.
Throw them out and fashion a modern political system-one that
as East Indians you can contribute in meaningful ways with the other political
organizations to make Guyana better for all citizens.
