Mr. Enrico Woolford has offered a response to my letter on the subject of the recent Guyana Press Association elections in which he writes that Kit Nascimento “has decided to go into his toolkit to tinker with the Guyana Press Association and declare what should or should not obtain”. What exactly he means remains unclear throughout his long letter, but it is reasonable to conclude that it is intended to be disparaging.
Mr. Christopher ‘Kit’ Nascimento in his letter to the press published on May 17th 2023, has decided to go into his toolkit to tinker with the Guyana Press Association and declare what should or should not obtain.
I write in response to a letter by Mr. Kit Nascimento published in the April 1 edition of your newspaper. In that missive, Mr. Nascimento sought to characterise Rickford Burke, Tacuma Ogunseye and myself as “dangerous” men who preach “Race Hate.” He quoted from and paraphrased comments I made on my Social Media/TV program, Politics 101. Hence my response.
Is there a true Guyanese heart that did not beat in tune with the tenor of Kit Nascimento’s ‘quo vadis’ letter? ‘One People, One Nation, One Destiny’ (published in several newspapers in Guyana) is not an option for us. It is our national motto; it must be the credo of every Guyanese. Nor is this a response to current profanity.
