There was no mention of the Amerindians complaining about poverty during the PPP years. So Granger must take the blame, he gave himself 50% raise and let the people suffer. Now oil money will be funneled to pnc operatives personal accounts.

Amerindians have always complained of poverty. You just don't listen if Jagdeo is indicted.

Jagdeo gave himself a pension which is the highest in the Caribbean for a head of state even though Guyana is the poorest. Imagine he gets more than he would if he had been the PM of T&T!

Even though he isn't a retired man, given that he is the Leader of the Opposition, he still takes this pension as it is higher.

I am also willing to bet that the PPP MPs are taking their higher salary that they received as part of the same increase.
