Dear Editor,
Simona Broomes is in the news again, and I should say for all the wrong reasons. She is at it again, exposing her baser material this time to personnel of a private security firm. It seems that the lawlessness and vulgar behaviour of this woman knows no bounds, as she goes on this mindless rampage.
Not so long ago, this very same individual showed to the world how base she can be when she assembled the “boom out” video in the hallowed chambers of Parliament. In that Youtube scene, Simona came over as a gleeful circus clown who was vainly trying to make us laugh as she poked fun at Opposition Leader Dr Bharrat Jagdeo.
However, little did she know that she was giving to Guyana and the entire world a poor, distasteful, idiotic display of her stupidity. This was the minister, stupid at her “best” performance.
She never apologised for that senseless and degrading act then, quite to the chagrin of the Guyanese people, only further compounding it with this latest vulgarity. I do not think this woman can get any lower.
Broomes is a sick person, and what makes the situation even worse is that she does not know her true condition. Poor soul, she needs urgent attention. It is so sad that this is another one of those public relations stunts that the PNC is showcasing to us.
Now, I was in a discussion with one of their supporters recently. I asked him what were his views on Simona’s latest tirade in public, and his response was: she is too vulgar, and needs to be relieved of her position.
Well, I told him that is not going to happen, judging from the PNC’s track record. I sarcastically replied that she might very well be elevated, rather than being sanctioned.
Going the way of a reprimand is furthest from the thoughts of President Granger. It seems that the more you are obnoxious, particularly in a contemptuous manner, the higher you are esteemed; the more you are vulgar, the more you are respected in that party.
The PNC is not going to punish Broomes. It is not going to happen in any shape or form. So Guyanese will just have to suck this one up and brace themselves for more of its kind.
But even if one should consider Simona’s situation as bad, I urge you to analyse Basil Williams’s case in threatening a judge. That can be considered the worst case scenario. Not only was it a horrible thing to do, but it also marks the acme of stupidity. And to think of it, nothing was done about him. You are talking about the attorney-general of a country making such base remarks, but not being sanctioned, and being wholly intact in his position as a minister. Fantastic! This can happen only right here in Guyana.
You may recall The Bheri Ramsarran matter, when he made that rustic remark to Sherlina Nageer, yes, The PNC Opposition at the time was most vocal, and promptly called for his immediate sacking. The PPP/C Government of Donald Ramotar did just that, claiming that Dr Ramsaran did not act in a gentleman-like manner, nor did he show statesmanship. Although he was extremely provoked (Nageer busting in when he was in the midst of a conversation with another person), the president of the day still deemed his behaviour as bordering on reproach, and for that reason he was relieved of his position. Contrast that situation with this yard fowl and you get the real picture of vulgarity reaching epic proportions with no redress forthcoming.
Finally, I would sum it up like this: The PNC is a party that is filled with persons who are vile and of corrupt stupidity, for this selfsame reason, a country called Guyana will continue to go down the long, arduous road of destruction.
Respectfully,
Neil Adams
