How are we to benefit from this? This has nothing to do with the Guyanese public..its a PPP thing.
These are only two people, for your benefit of course.The illegal PNC regime had five vice presidents, hangers on doing nothing. Then a series of ministers without portfolio. Meaning these people are on salary,with nowhere to go. Also doing nothing. What do you say to this? Get real.
I wanna change the words to this HYMN and sing, BRINGING IN THE SHEEP, BRINGING IN THE SHEEP, WE SHALL BE REJOICING BRINING IN THE SHEEP.
Now, now, be decent. Relax.Take it easy. You are speaking to yourself. And, you do not even know it.In bringing in the sheep,do not leave out yourself. You are the sheep,they, the MP’s are the shepherds. So,sing to yourself, Mackenziebanna,as I do not subscribe to PNC dictator name changes in Guyana.
only in Guyana, why is it cabnet members are MP’S they for sure gonna be a rubber stamp to the Government, members of Mp should be elected by the people and not by the party in Govt, in Guyana is take it or leave it, these folks so selfish.
RASTA MAN,,,,They will soon go the way of ROME, never ever to be no more.
If these individuals were to be elected then the people would have a say like a real democracy not the pseudo-democracy we have now. Also the Gov’t would not be able to have as much control as they want if these ppl were to be elected in.
rasta man ,it’s a party so de people doing what they want.
we can’t do anything but dance to the PPP music.
ASK OBAMA IF HE ELECTED HIS OFFICIALS OR THE PUBLIC, KNOW THE FACTS BEFORE YOU OPEN MOUTH.
Congrats Kwame Gilbert you can do we need a better Guyana
Good move! replace them with qualified brains, don’t do like the former government!
As opposed to unqualified brains? What nonsense! I peep you.
Yes rasta man they are still working with the winner takes all constitution that Burnham wrote….
judge the people from their performance and not because they are ppp or pnc.
WELL YOU CANNOT HAVE A FOX IN THE SAME PEN AS THE SHEEP.
It is amazing how our ignorance can betray our initiative and ideology, the appointments of 2 newcomers to parliament creates a higher grade of thinking power being fortified with youth and experience.Their participation in the elaboration and processing of bills will have impact on the GUYANESE population and absolutely have no political vinculation whatsoever, so why must we betray our own thoughts making such erroneous statements that it is politically afiliated? We can do better
god bless
