Newly appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Karen Cummings

Dr Karen Cummings has been sworn-in as Guyana’s new Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Dr Cummings replaces her former National Assembly colleague Carl Greenidge. She was sworn in with several government ministers at the Ministry of the Presidency on Thursday.

                                             Former Foreign Affairs Minister Carl Greenidge

Greenidge was one of four Government Members of Parliament with dual citizenship who tendered their resignations to President David Granger on Monday April 1, 2019, in keeping with the indications of High Court and Court of Appeal that it is unconstitutional for a person who swore allegiance, obedience or adherence to a foreign power or state to be a Member of Parliament.

The other officials include Former Minister of State, Joseph Harmon, Former Business Minister , Dominic Gaskin and Former Minister of Public Service , Dr Rupert Roopnaraine.

Prior to her new appointment, Dr Cummings has been serving in the APNU+AFC government as Minister within the Ministry of Public Health.

Any Indo who disagrees with APNU's policy is a racist in the eyes of our most beloved black nationalist, Carib.

Actually the Indos who are racists are the ones who scream that all blacks are lazy, violent, unproductive and inferior to Indians. And have done nothing good for Guyana.  You know the ones who scream "black man cyant run mauby shop", even as the PPP destroyed Guyana and are lucky that they lacked the ability to destroy the gold industry.

You fit the test. Other Indos don't. 

DG is very critical of APNU but has never publicly uttered a racist word about blacks.  Don't drag him into your racist clique because he doesn't belong there. At least I have no proof of it.
