Dear Editor,
I write with the deepest disappointment in Justice Claudette Singh. She has disappointed thousands of Guyanese, especially women that held her in high esteem. It appears that she was installed for a specific purpose. That of derailing the elections if the coalition does not win.
It should be and probably is the fundamental right of every Guyanese to be able to view the SoPs. They are not her personal property and she should not be allowed to get away with hiding them. After all, these SoPs were publicly displayed at the respective stations of polls. So what now is the excuse for not allowing every Guyanese the chance to view them?
Additionally, what is the harm with live streaming the process which would only lend more credibility and transparency to the recount?
If she felt that she could not perform the job fairly, then she should not have accepted it at all.
There are strong rumours that Retired Justice Singh is very close to Amna Ally and takes instructions from her. This fact is whispered with pride by the coalition. I certainly hope that there is no truth to that.
Lastly, Retired Justice Singh is being paid handsomely and she must perform her duties without fear or favour. Her behaviour so far has been that of a person who is obliging the entire country by consenting to be the elections chief. In what way is she better than Mingo and Lowenfield?
Sincerely,
Shazad Sookram
