PNC continues to torture Guyana with more frivolous, vexatious court action

Dear Editor,
The PNC’s latest, shameless lawsuit shows there is no good intent on the part of the PNC. Suspicious fires, street protests violating the COVID guidelines and the failure of the police to take action against PNC supporters, and the PNC and Granger’s continued lying and deception to gullible supporters that they won the elections continue unabashed, to the detriment of the country.
I have been asked three questions by three different church folks. One asked me “Why are these PNC people so wicked?” Another asked, “Why aren’t the Christian church people saying anything?” and the third asked, “Does the PNC not care that people are punishing?” My answer to the first question was that trickery, violence, and terrorism was always essential elements of the PNC’s playbook under founder riggers Burnham and Hoyte. Being wicked is in their DNA; it’s hard-wired and they have never had any shame to rig elections and declare themselves the winner. They did that for 28 years, and again, the most vulgar, clumsy and senseless attempt to rig since March 2 is on open, flagrant display. When the country’s Chief Elections Officer charged with being an honest, impartial broker to hold free and fair elections is seen as leading the coup and rigging the votes in favour of his apparent favourite party which has lost the election, there is no hope that we can have a fair election anymore under the current structures. Lowenfield and his conniving associates who had calculatingly proposed 156 days for the recount in line with the PNC’s playbook of delay and obfuscation must be fired forthwith. The Chair should be decisive and not prolong the national agony and torment with her dilly-dallying which allows opportunities for the PNC to file frivolous lawsuits. What was billed as the “mother of all elections,” has now become an “election to end all elections.” As one editorial said, the only answer acceptable to the PNC is that the PNC is the winner regardless of what the evidence says. The PNC’s mentality is loser takes all. They believe they are born to rule under some convoluted notion of divine rights, and does not want to give up. It’s the emergence of the Granger dictatorship.
On the second question I have been asked over and over, why aren’t the Christian church people speaking out, I would say there is a special hell for those dishonest leaders, some of whom call themselves apostles, prophets, bishops, prophetess, etc who have chosen to be silent at such a time as this. The PNC feels emboldened to continue its rigging, cheating ways when the silence of the good men is deafening. M Sukhdeo on the blogs said “Oh Lord what have the Guyanese people done so wrong that your wrath is upon them …Lord, please forgive and deliver Guyana from the hands of this great evil …Thank you for deliverance in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen.” Another, O Ward, said, “should Christians turn a blind eye to things that affect them? Should Christians wait until this gets really bad then cry out to God? Notice how the ‘Christ-believing’ PNC people using the Lord’s name while in the street practicing all manner of evil things.”
When confronted about their continued silence, these church leaders say they are “praying.” I would say praying is half of the solution. The other half is action. Prayer and action go together. Faith and works. Prayer without action is folly. If you pray and do not follow up with action, it’s not the full gospel, it’s fake. Prayer makes us strong to take action. To avoid responsibility, the church cannot substitute prayer for action. What the church does is preach about Daniel and Nebuchadnezzar and Esther who said, “If I perish, I perish,” but the church leaders say, “I am not going to put myself out there and perish. I will be ‘wise.’ ” And so they say nothing because it’s bad for business (church is a business in most places). You can lose members and money. What churches do is they leave the actions to others and when the actions of others have yielded results (through picketing, guarding ballot boxes, court action, public statements, etc), the church would swoop in and claim it is their prayers that brought the change. Unbridled hypocrisy!
On the last question whether the PNC does not care that people are punishing, it is sad that we have such poor, ruthless, people in charge driven by greed and lust for power and money and looting of national assets. In the midst of bankruptcy, a growing health crisis, and a border dispute, the PNC deliberately creates political instability at a time when stable, strong, united leadership is needed. And the church leaders tell their people to just pray about it. And the PNC wickedness continues.

Sincerely,
Jerry Singh
