Moraikobai election was the worst in recent history

Dear Editor,
With the recent conclusion of the Moraikobai Village Election, it is evident that the election was one of the worst in recent history, continuing a trend of deteriorating conditions every three years.
Moraikobai is a small Amerindian village located 95 miles up the Mahaicony Creek. It is the only Amerindian settlement in Region 5, and is home to approximately 1,200 residents. The village can be accessed by boat, or via the Soesdyke-Linden Highway.
First, as election season approaches, it is customary for the toshao and other village leaders to share their accomplishments over the past years. This allows them to hand over power gracefully, whether re-elected or not. However, the toshao has left many projects unfinished in our village, including the village benab. The village punt is still in disrepair, and the resort is below standard. One must wonder what happened to the funds allocated for these projects.
Additionally, community development remains stagnated, with youths still struggling to find jobs. To create better opportunities for themselves, many youths from Moraikobai have taken on the challenge of moving to the coast to pursue education and better their prospects with the aim of becoming future leaders. This quest is not easy, but we persevere because we want betterment for ourselves and our village.
Despite our efforts to elevate Moraikobai, the village no longer respects its youths. For instance, several youths recently graduated with honours from the University of Guyana and the Cyril Potter College of Education, and continue to proudly represent Moraikobai.
Yet, on election day, our names were omitted from the voting list because the toshao claimed we no longer reside in the village. This is the thanks we get for our achievements.
This situation is unjust. Despite our absence, Moraikobai remains our home, and we continue to contribute positively to its reputation.
Re-electing a leader who only serves his interests and misuses village funds is a mistake. The people of Moraikobai must recognize what is happening around them. We, the youths, see everything clearly, because we are the future generation. We need a leader who can genuinely support our youths and promote village development, not one who prioritizes personal gain.
When will the people of Moraikobai learn from their mistakes?

Sincerely,
Concerned Citizen
