Rajendra Singh and Badrie Persaud should resign their substantive posts immediately

Dear Editor,

Public servants who are desirous of running for political office must resign their government post in an effort to avoid a conflict of interest. Such action precludes the possibility for the misuse of public funds/resources in partisan political campaigns and junkets, where one political party benefits at the expense of other political groups. The PPP/C prime ministerial candidate recently completed this task and one is eagerly awaiting similar action from the Chief Executive Officer of GuySuCo, Rajendra Singh, and the Managing Director of Guyoil, Badrie Persaud. These resignations should be completed immediately.

Yours faithfully,

C Kenrick Hunte
