Dear Editor,
After listening to that statement made by David Granger one might be tempted to believe that he is sincere and he actually means what he said. That meaning I am talking about is the close of this long night of waiting which comes by way of a recount and by extension an acceptance of the results of that recount. In fact, Granger himself said that he is prepared to accept the results of the recount, but is this an honest statement?
I must say I think not, because this is the same man who said that he would abide by the Constitution when the No-Confidence Motion was passed against him, but in reality, withstood that motion to its very end. So, you don’t have to look very far to get the real picture of what manner of man the caretaker President is. Under the microscope of his immediate past, you see a deceptive and slippery character, one that is avid for power, who does not want to give up office. In fact, his supporters see this recount as the last-ditch effort for him to beat the system and come out on top. So, this entire recount is meant to be a farce and here’s how they plan to do it:
1. Already the main international observer group, that is, The Carter Center has been debarred from entering Guyana. This fits snugly into Granger’s plan of not wanting any international scrutiny.
2. No cell phones are allowed; only sanitised information must be shown to the public. The rigging plan is better able to flourish in a controlled environment.
3. There will be the counting of ballot stubs and what is in the sealed envelopes thus wasting valuable time on non-essential matters, while the real counting of the ballots is kept in abeyance.
4. The simultaneous opening, counting and tabulation of information from various boxes would be deliberately mixed up creating confusion. In the absence of the video of the proceedings, the real extent of the skullduggery is kept from the outside world. This is the desired effect.
5. All the observers and opposition parties would vociferously object to these illegal proceedings. This development would be considered as “hooliganism” and an effort to derail the recount. At this juncture, there would be an immediate suspension of the recount.
Now, you must not forget that the opposition parties would not remove from the premises until those boxes that were opened are sealed and placed back into the container. Here is where the situation becomes messy, because the incumbent would want the boxes kept open for nefarious purposes of tampering with the votes therein. Refusal of opposition groups to leave means that the police is likely to be called in to evict them. When this does not succeed the CEO of the COVID-19 Task Force would declare the area unfit for use.
This now paves the way for the politically controlled Chairman of GECOM to rely on the fraudulent results given by Mingo to declare the incumbent as winners.
I think without a ballot being counted we are going headlong into the realm of sanctions.
Respectfully,
Neil Adams
