Gov’t deaf to citizens’ concerns over crime – Westford

Not only has the government failed to properly address crime, but the cries of the Guyanese continue to fall on deaf ears, according to former public service minister Dr. Jennifer Westford.

“Is like stick bruk in they ears, so they cannot hear the cries of the people who they love to say voted for them; it is the cries of fathers, cries of the anxious mothers and children of the nation that they continue to ignore,” the former minister told the National Assembly on Wednesday, when the budget debate continued.
