The People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) held a successful picketing exercise in front of the Caribbean Community Secretariat Building , Liliendaal on the East Coast of Demerara, today, Monday, April 21, 2008.
The Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform, Mr. Robert Corbin, had indicated that such an exercise would take place when he spoke at the March and Rally organised by the PNCR on Friday, April 18th last at Parliament Building Square to protest the suspension of the licence of CNS TV Channel 6, the breaches of the Constitution by the Government, the abuse of power by the President, the high cost of living and the deteriorating security situation, among other issues.
The picketing exercise in front of the Caricom Secretariat Building was a prelude to the presentation of a letter to the Secretary General of the Caribbean Community Secretariat for transmission to the Chairman of the Caribbean Community, Hon. Hubert Ingraham of The Bahamas and other Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community. That letter, which was signed by the Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform, Mr. Robert Corbin, outlined in some detail the issues which the Party believes could seriously affect the peaceful and orderly development of Guyana and the hosting of Carifesta X.
Presenting the letters were Mr. Winston Murray, CCH, MP, Chairman of the PNCR, Mr. Oscar Clarke, General Secretary of the PNCR and Mr. C.N. Sharma, owner of CNS TV Channel 6. The Leader of the People’s National Congress Reform, Mr. Robert Corbin indicated that it would be unethical to reveal the contents of the letter in question until the parties concerned have had the opportunity to digest its contents. He assured the media that once this has been done the contents will be made available them. He, however, indicated that a copy of the said letter was forwarded by him to President Bharrat Jagdeo this afternoon.
In the meantime, the PNCR is actively putting measures in place to continue demonstrating its concern about such critical issues as the cost of living, the breaches of the Constitution, the torturing of our citizens, among other matters, by holding more picketing exercises and rallies and meetings in different parts of the country. The next picket exercise will be in front of the Office of the President on Wednesday, April 23, 2008.

What is the PNC complaining about. Isn't the president using the constitution which they wrote.
ReplyDeleteGO Mr President, use the constitution the way it was meant to be used, if you don't you would be violating the constitution.
y'all wake up from the dead?
ReplyDeletegood
As a leader that suppose to be helping with the development of this country and looking at ways that Guyana can benefit from, Corbin is doing the opposite. We has Guyanese should come out and protest against the PNC childish and irresponsible behaviours. I hope that some actions can be taken against Corbin for planning to disrupt the Carifesta X in Guyana.
ReplyDeleteI hope that this event will come out as planned by the GOG and especially by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport.
If the Constitution was breach, then Corbin should of take the matter to Court.
ReplyDeleteThere are ways in which things are to be done and Corbin is not following any of these procedures at all.
Corbin is using Sharma issue for protesting, but we all know that this something that he was always up to. I can't believe Corbin, the leader of the main opposition party wanted to disrupt Carifesta X. I would just like Corbin to know that Guyanese would not allow him and his other colleagues to anyway corrupt Carifesta X in Guyana. This is an event that will showcase Guyana cultural talents and a whole lot more about this beautiful country. This is so stupid of you but trust me I didn’t expect better from you.
