…the graveyard
Contrary to what most of us think, the age of miracles ain’t over!! Remember the AFC – which its then founder-leader Ramjhaat had predicted would become “Dead Meat” if it hitched up with the PNC – that was duly killed once again by the voters at the Sept 1 poll? What else could explain him now announcing that “the AFC will rebound”??!! Your Eyewitness has written before of the capacity of Dead Meat to move – due to what’s called “galvanic twitching”. Was this an example of that phenomenon??
After being kicked to the kerb by PNC/APNU during the 2015-2020 APNU/AFC Government, the AFC Dead Meat effected a Frankenstein-like transformation by placing various new and not-so-new faces onto the head of their party. But that ploy didn’t work, and several new blood – who’d been transfused to give some energy to the carcass – jumped ship!! As such, when the AFC couldn’t even scrape together enough leftover votes to snag a seat in Parliament, most folks read them their last rites!! And hoped they’d rest in peace.
Sadly, it wasn’t to be!! Even though the new leader – who really wasn’t THAT new but actually recycled! – didn’t argue that the AFC’s 3610 votes were greater than FGM’s 4326 votes that snagged them the leftover seat!! Seeing that he was the inventor of a new political mathematics that showed 32 was greater than 33, many had assumed he’d have gone that route!! He instead decided to take Ralph Gonzalves’ 2020 advice to David Granger to “take his licks like a man” – and resigned forthwith!!
The other founder-leader of the AFC, Trotman – of the infamous 2016 Exxon PSA giveaway fame! – promptly squealed that the mathematical brainbox should remain at the helm – at least until they could elect new leadership. Your Eyewitness couldn’t figure out why – since this wasn’t a case of deserting a sinking ship. This ship had SUNK!! It didn’t need a captain but at best a salvage crew who could maybe sell the remains for scrap!!
Enter the first founder leader – Ramjhaat!! He popped up to announce that the remnants of the AFC were “mentoring” Sanction Man’s WIN newbies in politics!! He also mentioned doing the same for the PPP – but that was too much even for your Eyewitness’ rose-tinted glasses!! Can you imagine Ramjhaat mentoring a PPP newbie with Jaggy around?? Not in this life, buddday!!
So what about WIN? Now, if Sanction Man had sent Doggy and crew to parliament, it’s conceivable he might’ve needed some help to prepare them to debate Anil, as Doggy had threatened!! But exactly what could they learn from a “leader” like Ramjhaat?? To vote for the PPP like his AFC sidekick from back in the day, Charranndass, had done??
Naaah!! They’ll steer clear of him!!

…eye pass
As your Eyewitness follows the story of the Chinese supermarket illegally under construction – on Brickdam opposite the Ministry of Education even!! – that killed a poor worker when a wall collapsed, his blood boils over!! How much must we take from the Chinese?? No permission had been granted for the structure by the CH&PA. Yet even after the death by aggravated negligence – as shown by the slapdash building techniques!! – the Chinese blithely went ahead with their building and even tore off the CH&PA’s notice!!
This isn’t eye pass – this is ra55 pass!! There must be an immediate cease and desist order for this structure. Even if every building code in the book hadn’t been violated – and then some – how can you have a supermarket and its attendant traffic demands in front of a Ministry?? Have we no sense of decorum? Then there are the penalties for the hundreds of violations?
The Chinese boss who claims he doesn’t understand English must be dealt with condignly!!

…here to eternity
As the US prepares to remove that thorn in our (Essequibo) side, Mad Maduro should do well to reflect on the fate of Noriega over in Panama – after the US extracted the drug-smuggling dictator.
