Is Ubraj a Mayor or an illegal street vendor?

Dear Editor,
I saw Mayor Ubraj Narine on New Market Street speaking with the illegal vendors who will be removed by the Public Works Ministry. It appears that he is in favour of these people carrying out their business on the street and creating a traffic hazard. It is because of him that all the streets in Georgetown are taken over by illegal street vendors, and the markets are in a deplorable state. I cannot see myself in the near future returning to visit Guyana, which I left more than four decades ago. I have never before seen the markets and streets of Georgetown in the current condition. Now this man, who said on a talk show that he became a pandit when he was eleven years old, is taking the Minister to court. I hope he is not serious, because he would look like a fool.
I always wonder how he became the Mayor. The only thing I have ever seen him doing was supposedly cleaning a trench with others during the PNC reign.

Regards,
