Dear Editor,
Thursday’s full page paid advertisement in SN (28th December) on the causes of the City’s woes must be seen as the last spin of the mayoral dice – loaded, which way ever you look at it.
His Worship, the Mayor, is unwilling to accept that his GGG, having gained electoral plurality in 1994, the last year for Local Government Elec-tions, is today like a church which has lost its faithful, without a secular congregation, no serving clergy except His Holiness, Bishop Hammie, stuck in his woodants ridden pulpit, preaching his usual mantra-moral and spiritual revival. Not unlike the 3-Card shyster on the street corner, he distracts you while he plays the race card, praying in aid the ethnic majority refrain of Moses Bhagwan, the founder leader of that still-born political outfit, the Indian People’s Revolutionary Association and includes ACDA as civic/political forces in his democratic game of Chess.
The unmitigated reality, Hammie, is that the recent rains have caused no flooding and there is significant ongoing preparation work for massive improvement in relation to the Roads and Avenues in the City since the Central Government has taken control, as you put it. It appears, therefore, that you are now irrelevant to the process and if I am not mistaken, and I do not pretend to be a Grand Master, whenever there is checkmate, a player can always exercise his option to resign.
“When the Choir sings, Hallelujah”
