The Ministries are legit, not the Ministers. The Ministries are run by the Permanent Secretary, however, the said Permanent Secretaries, should be involved in implementing existing policies. 

The letter by the Ministry of Foreign appears to me to be written by an APNU/AFC party hack working there. BTW that letter is riddled with inaccuracies.

Are these Ministries still legit? Why are they speaking for Guyana?

There are no ministers right now. Only Granger remains as caretaker President without any cabinet. But don't tell that to the PNC. After all, they have shown on multiple occasions that they have no regard for law or order. They have yet to cross the threshold over to civilization.

They are not legit, only the permanent secretary can speak on behalf oh the minister’s. These ministers  term came to a end on March 2. 2020... but just like how they squat in Government for one and half year illegally, that’s what they are doing.

Ha..ha..same posted another thread ,claimed from PNC mouthpiece.

Ayuh does amaze people.

As Senior Administrator you have a propensity for pettiness. Rise yourself above that and be a better person. Friendly advice.

Good advice. 
Learn a few things from moderator Ray. He is respected on both sides of the political spectrum and doesn’t get involved in pettiness.
