Nehru posted:Gilly, I hope you are right and he can deliver. He is BLESS to have the great Dr Jagdeo at his side with all the knowledge, experiences and wisdom.
Given Mr Jagdeo’s controversial record as a two-term-plus President (1999 to 2011), the beginnings of the spectacular collapse of sugar, jobless growth, lack of diversification of the economic bases of the country, the questionable assignment of state assets and contracts to cronies, the total breakdown of law and order following the prison break in 2002 and the subcontracting of the crime fight to drug lords and others, no independent-minded voter would want him controlling the destiny of the country particularly with the impending oil and gas economy.
Mr Ali therefore faces the enormous task of convincing the public that he is independent-minded and that were he to be elected at the head of a PPP/C government that he will not only have a transformative vision for the bridging of the deep-seated divisions in the country and the engendering of good governance but that he would have the determination and wherewithal to resist direction from Mr Jagdeo. It is a huge ask.
