Poor attempt to salvage an unimpressive, disastrous ‘Mayorship’

Dear Editor,
On a local newscast of April 27, 2017, the Mayor of Georgetown said she received complaints from vendors that City Constables were extorting moneys from them; something that she is totally against.
What hypocrisy! She is well aware that this criminal activity has been a fixture of the City Constabulary during her entire tenure as a City Councillor. What she also knows and is not saying, is that it is a criminal network that includes many senior Constabulary personnel.
A certain notorious senior officer who is on pre-retirement leave and who now works as a taxi driver at the Demerara Harbour Bridge comes by the Fire Service (Old Co-op Bank area every Friday night) and collects money from those vendors.
This activity is facilitated by two ranks from Stabroek Outpost. One has to take what this Mayor say with a pinch of salt. Her belated attack on City Constables is simply a poor attempt to salvage her tarnished, unimpressive and disastrous ‘Mayorship’.

Sincerely,
Joel Alexander
