PPP MP, Anil Nandlall

–Justice Singh calls him out over ‘utterly outrageous’ falsehoods

JUSTICE Claudette Singh has slammed as utterly outrageous a claim by People’s Progressive Party (PPP) executive member Anil Nandlall that the newly-appointed Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) is being paid $800,000 monthly as an advisor to the Attorney-General.

Justice Singh was making reference to an article published in the October 23 edition of the Stabroek News under the headline, “By President’s own criteria, Patterson unfit for Gecom chairmanship – Nandlall.”

In the article at reference, Nandall seeks to discredit the new GECOM Chairman by questioning the information stated on his Curriculum Vitae (CV).

According to the article, Justice James Patterson, who is on the advisory committee to the Attorney-General, receives a salary of $800,000, a lie Justice Singh said she condemns in the strongest possible terms.

“The evidence available links him intricately to this government and to the People’s National Congress. He has been appointed as Adviser to the Attorney-General, a post for which he is paid a salary of $800,000 per month, so he is an employee of the Government,” Nandlall is quoted as saying in the article.

Justice Singh clarified that as a sitting member of the committee, she is paid a stipend of $15,000, while Justice Patterson, as chairman, is paid $20,000.

“It is an outright lie that is trying to besmirch the good name of the persons on the committee,” Justice Singh said on Monday.

The amount of his paycheck doesn't matter.  What matters is the fact that he is on the PNC payroll and he is GECOM Chairman.  Does Justice Singh think that is a conflict of interest?

He is on the Government of Guyana's payroll, not the PNC. Big difference.

I read with amusement, today’s Chronicle blazing headline, ‘Nandlall caught lying’. It is a classic exhibition of juvenile journalistic spinning. A singular statement is plucked out of an over 2000 words interview, which I did with the Stabroek News published yesterday (October 23, 2017) and that becomes the focus of an entire article.

My information is that the advisors to the Attorney General are paid $800,000 each. This information came from the mouth of one of those very advisors. It was said in the presence of over 10 distinguished professionals over the weekend at a prestigious establishment in the City. Why that advisor would lie remains a mystery to me. Why would Justice Claudette Singh seek to defend Mr. James Patterson also remains a mystery to me. If Justice Singh and Mr. Patterson are not receiving $800,000 per month then I would respectfully suggest that they pursue this matter diligently with the Administration. On its face, it appears to smack of discrimination.

But seriously, is that what the Chronicle really concerned about? Is the Chronicle not concerned:
1. about the unilateral unconstitutional appointment of an 84-year-old Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM)?

2. that in making this appointment, the President violated his own criteria and misled this nation when he said that he will only appoint a Chairman of GECOM through a collaborative process with the Leader of the Opposition?

3. that the President misled this nation when he laid down criteria in relation to a suitable candidate, for example, that the person must not have any connection, “apparent or hidden” to any political party; and that the person must not be a religious activist/leader and then the President violates those very criteria by appointing a person who is employed by his Government and is a Reverend?

4. that Mr. Justice Patterson asserts on his CV that he was the Chief Justice of Grenada in 1987, when the records reflect that Mr. Justice Sir Samuel Horatio Graham was Chief Justice of Grenada from 1987-1990?

5. that Mr. Justice Patterson cannot be independent or appear to be independent or impartial, having regard to the fact that he is an advisor to the AG; that he was appointed by the President to Chair a Presidential COI into the Prison fires in 2016; that he sits on a committee appointed by the President to review applications for Chief Justice and Chancellor of the Judiciary; that he was appointed by the President as an advisor to the President on the Committee of the Prerogative of Mercy; that he was a pall bearer at a PNC funeral service of Mr. Desmond Hoyte at which the other pall bearers were relatives of Mr. Hoyte, known leaders, activists and supporters of the PNC; that he is a member of a Facebook group calling themselves ‘Rally Around The PNC’?

6. that the President was advised that Mr. Patterson was not the Chief Justice of Grenada in 1987, but yet proceeds to appoint him and then cites Mr. Patterson’s appointment as Chief Justice of Grenada as the basis for appointing him?

All of the above-mentioned information were contained in the very interview from which the Chronicle plucked that singular sentence. Is the Chronicle not concerned about these issues of national public importance?

Additionally, is the Chronicle not concerned that the President made this decision to appoint Mr. Patterson Chairman of GECOM without even consulting his own coalition partners in Government, to wit, the rubber stamp AFC and the WPA, both of whom came out with Public Statements confirming that they were not consulted?

Is the Chronicle not concerned that almost every major stakeholder organisation in Guyana has condemned the President’s decision as “unconstitutional”, “politically senseless”, “wrong”, “perverse”, “void”, etc.?

As the national newspaper of this country, the Chronicle and those who commandeer it should be ashamed of themselves. The article is simply a most clumsy attempt at political propaganda.

I take comfort from the fact that no one takes the Guyana Chronicle seriously.

Nandlall got caught in another of his wicked lies so he runs off on a tangent trying to deflect. He listened to another of his drunken friends giving him false info at Seeta's Bar and he got caught with his pants down. Or maybe he was too drunk to understand what he was being told.

Which Seeta?  Nagamootoo or Ramjattan?  I have seen those two Seeta and I don't think Nandlall will be caught with his pants down at any of them "Bar!"

Nandlall claimed that he heard of Patterson's salary "at a prestigious establishment in the City" aka a rum shop. The rum shop of choice for these drunkards is Seeta's Bar on Station Street, Kitty.

Claudette Singh should produce the salary information and leh we see.  Enquiring minds to know.  Leh we see the pay stub please.  And why is she jumping in to defend Patterson?  She starting to act like Freddie Kissoon.

Why are you defending a lie? Ms Singh has no obligation to produce her paycheck in order to fend and prove rum shop talk. Call the dunkards out for lying and let them wallow in their stupidity.

Nandlall made the accusation. If there is anyone to provide proof, it should be him. Trying to justify a lie by claiming that you heard it in a drunken rum shop conversation is just plain stupid.

Haha. Can the man get more stupid than offering a rum shop conversation as proof? Even a clown like you would know that wouldn't hold up in a court of law.

Working for a Government Agency is completely different to working for a Political Party, Dum Dum.

How can we trust what the PNC saying they are rigging the facts starting now.  Wasting time disputing  an amount the fact remains that Patterson is on the PNC payroll so can he be trusted as the head of GECOM.  No. Not fit and proper.
