Govt. abusing newly acquired choppers, army sources

Remember those Bell choppers that were bought with our tax payers money to hunt down crimminals? Sources within the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) are saying that the army top brass is beginning to worry that the crafts are being used mostly for work connected with the PPP/C. One source referred to transporting party officials to interior locations at a time when fuel has skyrocketed. Hence it came as no surprise that one of the choppers was spotted over the PPP/C Congress. Tax payers money. According to another source, the plot follows a similiar line where a Minister requests the use of the chopper, but would be accomapnied by other party officials. Once on the ground, the army source said that the party officials would fan out and beging sprewing the party's message. The opposition has not said a word about this malpractice, but we have no connections whatsoever with the Government and we call it as we see it.

SN article: The Guyana Defence Force helicopter was also very noticeable in the vicinity during the day flying periodically over the venue and its environs.
