Opposition supporters deserve better than Azruddin

Dear Editor,
Step One: Lead a months-long campaign to be “sworn in” as Opposition Leader (no such thing) following an 11-count Florida Grand Jury Indictment and Extradition Request from Rubio himself.
Step Two: Suddenly accuse Trump and Rubio of being magically controlled by Freedom House to carry out “political persecution”.
Step Three: Make repeated comparisons to Cheddi Jagan. Though Cheddi fought to liberate Guyana from colonialism, whilst Azruddin fights to liberate himself from taxes.
Step Four: Get elected as Opposition Leader after falsely claiming that there was a constitutional crisis.
Step Five: Try to postpone extradition proceedings, citing Parliamentary obligations, whilst skipping several sittings. Post one or two Facebook monologues throughout this absence too.
Three things can be true: That Azruddin Mohamed is a Facebook politician who simply can’t handle the competitive nature of politics; that this is a barefaced attempt at using constitutional office to avert court; or that he’s a spoilt child who simply doesn’t care.
Either way, the result is the same: The Opposition supporters deserve meaningful representation. Not evasion. Better simply is yet to come.

Yours faithfully,
Nikhil Sankar
