Let me
begin by congratulating Dr. Mitchell and
NNP for a well attended and successful
General Council meeting held at the St.
Mark's Secondary School on Sunday 3rd,
November 2008. Although I was not there,
my associates informed me that 'Jonah is
alive and well.'
I also want
to congratulate Dr. Mitchell for proving
to his 'hunter' George Worme, the
Attorney General James Bristol and Arley
Gill that only the truth will see you
free and at the same time warn him. I
want to warn him that he will be
continued to be harassed by those who
are jealous of him and hate him.
Bear in mind that political intimidation
and harassment of Opposition members
becomes a reality when the sitting
government cannot present a credible
development program or promises made to
the electorate. I foresee that NNP
members will be detained for the usual
48 hours under the pretext that the DPP
has ordered same due to a criminal
investigation; there will be unfounded
allegations against members about all
sorts of offences, the list will be
long, however, at some point it has to
stop and with God not sleeping, believe
me, it would stop.
Dr. Mitchell citizenship issue is dead
as far I am concerned, and if Ingrid
Jackson feels that she can sneak through
the backdoor to take Dr.Mitchell's
legitimately deserved seat, then she is
dreaming as she was doing during the
election campaign. Too bad she had to
unpack her bags after the US Embassy
revelation on Thursday 30th, November
2008 which cleared the air on Dr.
Mitchell's citizenship status which,
interestingly, now puts shame on the
confident faces of Senator Arley Gill,
Attorney General James Bristol and
Grenada Today newspaper Editor George
Worme whose 'smoking gun' was jammed by
those with the FACTS.
Having said all that, it is time for the
NDC to come forward with a National
Development alternative and cease the
petty mentality of trying to harass
opposition members. The members of the
NDC Government also need to declare
their assets as they said they would
during the election campaign. Senator
Arley Gill also needs to know that 'we
the people' are still awaiting the lease
he promised to present to the nation for
his Boat 'Baby Ruth' which was caught in
St. Vincent waters with an unexplainable
amount of cash causing the crew to be
charged by Vincentian law enforcement.
The NDC Government promised that they
would 'provide free health care for all
children under the age of 18 and senior
citizens over 60 years' we are yet to
hear anything about this.
The Grenadian people voted the NDC into
office to manage the affairs of the
country, not to manage the affairs of
the opposition leader who continues to
make the likes of George Worme and his
cohorts the laughing stock in the eyes
and minds of Grenadians around the
world.

Sen. Arley Gill & AG
|
In the NDC'S Manifesto it stated that
'the Grenadian people can confidently
rely upon us to show zero tolerance for
unethical conduct'. With this being said
I ask you Mr. Prime Minister; 'Will
Senator Arley Gill be reprimanded for
his verbal and unethical attack on the
Opposition Leader at the 'fishing
expedition' press conference held last
week Wednesday? Will Newspaper editor
George Worme be reprimanded for his
disgusting, distasteful and most
unethical attack on the Office of the
Governor General? Will Ambassador and
former Off-shore salesman Anslem Clouden
be reprimanded for his outburst on the
US Charge D'Affaires Karen Jo McIssac
who was only doing her job? Will your
Government's advisor Lloyd Noel be
reprimanded for his libelous article
published about Dr. Mitchell and the
World's youngest F1 30th World Champion
Lewis Hamilton regarding the Hotel deal?
Finally, Mr. Prime Minister the on-going
tactics of harassment by the agents and
advisors in your Government will be your
Government's biggest downfall. If you
have not taken note about the loss of
the Hamilton deal, the boomerang effect
trying to get at Dr. Mitchell, the
attacks on the Office of Governor
General and the situation where each
member of your team seems to be doing
they own thing, then I feel sorry for
you as someone who is known to be Mr.
Transparency, Integrity, accountability
and honesty.
Remember your vision for Grenada 'It is
a vision of a nation that is free, a
land of equal opportunity, a land of
tolerance, fair play and prosperity.
This is our country and we want to make
it a place where we can live, work,
bring up our children and enjoy the
fruits of our labour in peace and
harmony'. Those are your words.
