Legitimate interlocutor banished?

Dear Editor,

It was the prestigious ‘legitimate interlocutor ‘. Now it seems it too has been banished with others.

Not even its scrutineers report or the eloquent pronouncements  from its statesmen, both current and former can soften the resolve we shall not be removed.

More shenanigans and machinations while a beleaguered nation waits to exhale.

Yours faithfully,

Shamshun Mohamed
