Gerard was seen in his garage pouring Snakeoil in bottles to be sold in New Amsterdam.

Yuji:

As you are aware, Sunday May 13th is Mothers Day, and Gerhard is extremely busy filling orders for Flowers. Gerhard has also been asked by the top 2 slimy hypocrites in the AFC, Loser Moses and Loser Ramjattan, to keep a low profile. Right now Gerhard is deeply ashamed that fraud and corruption in the AFC has been exposed. The poor man has been shedding buckets of tears.

Rev

Uncle Moses was seen in New Amsterdam with Blackpat pun he face and a group of people throwing ganda Egg in his face.

Al, these guys from the AFC make the most noise in parliament about corruption.

But they are in deep hiding when one of their own exposes corruption to the highest level in the AFC..... dead silence.

I hope that he bounces into a flower bucket and catch some sense and speaks out against AFC corruption.

Just spoke to someone in Corentyne, Berbice and they told me that they are stocking up on rotten eggs for the next AFC meeting in Berbice.

I only asked the man how much he does pay his empolyees and he run like wan Bolt. Dem rich bai all ova Guyana does flash dem wealth by the sweat and blood of the poor humble labourers. Dem does criticize the Govt. but some ah dem worse. Massa day nah done.

Randolph, I owe you an apology since I defended Gerhard the last time you said this but today Gerhard showed his true colours.

I feel sorry for the exploited. It is time that some of his workers come forward and speak out.

Yuji:

Guyanese are now seeing firsthand what a bunch of conniving hypocrites and scamps the executives of the AFC are. The AFC has been endlessly accusing the PPP of fraud and corruption and now the Guyanese people find out the AFC executives have been excusing themselves--Accusing the PPP of fraud and corruption but excusing themselves---that is deception, deceitfulness and hypocrisy to the highest degree. The Guyanese people must no longer trust and believe the crooks and cheats and swindlers in the AFC--shame on Loser Moses, Loser Ramjattan and all the executives of the Alliance Of Frauds and Crooks(AFC).

The Alliance for Frauds and Crooks are in hiding. Watch them do a song and snake oil dance tomorrow.

They may even dress it up with some flowers.

Berbicians will no longer tolerate snake oil.

Moses is just like B.S Rai, remember him ? He sold out his own people.

Yuji:

You mentioned Moses!

Let me remind you of proverb 27:19 which I mentioned earlier today:

"A mirror reflects a man's face but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses" Proverb 27:19

Moses has always claimed that he is a man of honesty, integrity and character. But the Guyanese people now know differently. Moses is a rank hypocrite. He is a traitor. A Judas. The man is dog shit. Moses is now a member of the Alliance Of Frauds and Crooks(AFC)---he is one of them--go and read proverb 27:19 again--the Guyanese version reads, "show me your company and I'll tell you who you are."---Moses is a fraud and a crook.

Keep them honest. I am now heading to bed and reading a few verses from the Holy Bible and Bhagavad Gita before falling asleep.

I wish politicians from all stripes were honest. They never learn and are out to cheat others.

Check the headlines and read about Storm's friend who was sent to jail, he was also a politician.

I hope that Storm can give him a lecture on morality and honesty rather than fighting with us folks who are calling on corrupt practices to end be it AFC, PPP or PNC.

Iman so happy for you guys here, finally able to ejaculate eh?

Happy times nuh?

So, any of you guys here tried to question any of the PPP thieves on how they were able to get their hands into the cookie jar?

If not, then how dare you goofballs demand explanation from other members of this board.

I was asked about this on facebook today, and my response was that Mr Yusuf's allegations warrant an investigation.  No one should be asking to be reimbursed for monies that were not authorised to be spent.

As it relates to my staff, I have four farm workers, all Amerindians (father, mother, son and son-in-law).  I provide housing and they are paid between $40,000 and $60,000 per month.  I have helped to pay for the medical expenses for the son when he had malaria, and also for the son-in-law when his wife gave birth.  At the beginning of this new school term, I gave the mother money with which to buy clothing for the six children (including the newborn).

Moreover, I have given an acre of my land for them to farm on as they see fit, and I am in the process of transferring a plot of land as a houselot to them.  With this, they can apply for a loan from NBS to build their own home.  I am doing this because they cannot own any land on the reservation they came from (Santa Mission) and they do not wish to go back.

gmoney's response is the only sane one from the AFC so far. I don't understand why the other AFC supporters feel they should support wickedness within the party regardless of right or wrong.  

That being said, I find it strange that gmoney spending all this money and attention on the amerindians in his employ. Maybe there are ulterior motives, he might be getting something on the side from one of the females?

PPP thieves will not be speared either. We are building a new Guyana.

Just post the evidence and let us drag them out.

Karma has a way of coming back and bitchslapping you. The AFC has been accusing the PPP of fraud and corruption while excusing their own fraud and corruption. The Guyanese people have now awoken to the AFC's hypocrisy.

Gerard pays four Amerindian laborers 40,000 t0 60,000 Guyana dollars per month to work on his farm.  This amounts to 500 to 750 Guyana dollars per day, or $US2.25 to $US3.75  Isn't this pretty cool for a politician who thinks Gov't minimum wage of US150 per month is repressive????

GR has to be insane to explain his Business to anyone on this Board. I certainly would not have done that and it has no bearing on the issue.

Since GR brought it here, I will say Politician as usual. I hope he can answer you Billy. Snakeoil anyone???? Moses, POOR Moses, I would NEVER have believed this man would fall so low to become a SNAKEOIL Salesman.

Mi tink yuh ritmatic lil bit aff bai.  If dah man a raaly pay datt, is like US 175-300 per mth.  Pon tap, you hear wah di man seh, e' dozz help dem wid nuff moo adda tings.  Yuh geh sick wid govt an' try geh lil help nah, dem kik yuh da side an, tek way yuh wuk.

yuji22, my computer is on almost always when there is electricity and when I start it up I log into a number of sites.  It doesn't mean, however, I am in front of it all the time.  If something is directed to me, I almost always respond.  If you don't see me respond, chances are I missed it, and you can PM me.

Sledgehammer,

I calculated my numbers based on four laborers and not one. 200 to 300 dollar earned by four laborers amounts to $US50 per month for each laborer on the low side and $US75 per month on the high side. Calculate the daily wage for each laborer and find your answer.

HASEEF YUSUF, AFC Councillor, Region 6: IT is with profound thought and extreme deliberation that I have finally made this decision to let the public know, especially the Alliance For Change (AFC) members and supporters in Berbice of the corrupt and fraudulent practices of certain AFC members in Berbice, more specifically a Member of Parliament (MP).
He has been on DTV 8 for the past few years where he hosted a programme called ‘Issues of the People’, where he vehemently lashed out at the government, the PPP/C, GPL, GWI and the Guyana Police Force, Guysuco, etcetera. He proclaimed himself as the ‘champion’ of transparency, justice and accountability. He entertained anyone who claims to have a grievance and he would lash out without any supporting evidence. He also claimed on numerous occasions that he would ‘singlehandedly’ deliver Berbicians from oppression and corruption, even if the AFC fails to do so.
However, certain post-election events greatly contradicted this image he is trying so hard to portray on TV. I will deal chronologically with these events and you be the judge.
Just after the November elections, three AFC groups submitted financial reports on campaign activities to the Head Office: New Amsterdam, Whim and Upper Corentyne. Two of these groups submitted detailed reports with the necessary supporting documents; however, the Whim Group headed by this MP failed to do so. He submitted a financial report without supporting documents and he furthermore made a ludicrous claim. He claimed that he spent $4.5 M from his pocket and that the party should reimburse him. Two points should be noted here:
I) He was not authorised by the executive or the Campaign Manager to spend in excess of what funds were given to him through the party or by way of donations;
II) He provided no documentary evidence whatever to support his claim of $ 4.5M. In fact, he claimed that he was too busy for that. Right now he is asking for same such evidence in Parliament!
I want to add here that even for funds collected, no receipts were issued. In fact, he would tell a woman working at his house to ‘throw it in the box upstairs.’
The central executive of the party categorically refused to entertain his spurious and unsubstantiated claim for reimbursement. This led to the next linked event.
On February 1 this year, he convened a meeting at his Whim office where 51 members were present. At this meeting, he emphasised that the party owed him $4.5M and he tried to solicit funds through donations and fund- raising activities in order to recoup his claim of $4.5M ‘owed’ to him. He then convened an election to form a Regional Management Committee and to establish an AFC Office at his Office at Whim. One of the functions of this RMC would be fund-raising through which he would get ‘his money back.’
I was unanimously elected by all 51 members present as the Chairman, Mr. Lionel Howell as the Vice- Chairman and Ms. Donna Mathoo as the Secretary.
Among other things, I put forward fund-raising suggestions to the members present and asked their suggestions as to what should be done with excess funds above the needs of individual groups and everyone unanimously agreed that all excess funds should be placed into a bank account to take care of future expenses. No one present agreed that monies collected should be used to offset the claim by the MP. This irked him.
At this same meeting, he also suggested that a certain female be selected and employed to work at the AFC office to be opened at Whim. I strongly objected to this sort of cronyism and suggested that applications be invited so that there is fairness and transparency and that the most suitable person be selected. Can you imagine a fledgling party behaving in this undemocratic manner? Suddenly I became this MP’s number one enemy, but I can live with that!
The third event unfolded on April 16, 2012. Unknowing to Donna Mathoo (the Secretary) and I, another election meeting was convened to re-elect office bearers to the Regional Management Committee. The meeting held on February 1, 2012 was declared unconstitutional by the General Secretary, Mr. Sixtus Edwards. I knew about this meeting two days later when Mr. Lionel Howell called me to hand over some funds and documents to him, the new Chairman.
However three points should be raised here:
i) Donna and I were never officially or unofficially informed that the election held on February 1 was null and void and that we were no longer the Chairman and Secretary respectively, and that the office will become vacant;
ii) We were not invited to present ourselves for nomination or otherwise; and
iii) A public announcement was not made about the election meeting. The AFC’s Constitution Article, Section 8, has made it clear that all groups in the region should be invited for any such meeting. Less than 20 members were present. Why the MP did not make a public announcement on DTV 8 the week before so that members could take notice? Why only a selected handful of members? Is this not rigging? Is this not fraudulent?
It is time to take out the ‘beam from thine own eyes’ Mr. MP!
And lo and behold the very same female whom the good MP recommended was employed to work in the AFC Office! And yet speakest thou about cronyism! This is a shame and disgrace to the very principles which the AFC stand for or claims to stand for!
The million dollar (or 4.5 million) question that I want Mr. Ramjattan to answer is: Was the MP acting in the interest in the AFC or in his own self-interest?
The other questions are:
i) Where is the accountability within the AFC?
ii) Where is the transparency in the electoral process?
iii) Isn’t there cronyism within the AFC?
iv)What are you going to do about these matters?
v) Afraid of another defection if you drop the hammer?
I doubt whether Mr. Ramjattan has the courage to act decisively in these matters since I have emailed him three times and on the third occasion he said that he was too busy and that the General Secretary will deal with these matters.
In any other country the misuse and abuse of campaign funds are dealt with criminally, especially where a person is making unsubstantiated claims in order to enrich himself or herself. But alas ! In Guyana such a person will be promoted to high offices.
I still want to know which university made that terrible blunder to confer that MP with a doctorate as he is unfit for public office and should be severely reprimanded for his actions. I call upon the party’s Chairman, Mr. Ramjattan and the Central Executive to act decisively now or face the consequences later.
At this point I am undecided as to what my next move will be, but I am sure that it hinges on how the party will take it from here.

I should have been clearer.  I meant each.  Therefore, Sledgehammer's calculations are closer to what I pay.  The least paid is actually a part time worker (is not required to work a full day), who gets G$1,600 per day which is around $40,000 (US$200) per month.  The highest paid gets G$2,500 per day which is just over $60,000 (US$300) per month.  

Yesterday I asked a girl at National Hardware how much she is paid, and she said $8,000 a week, which is $1,333 (US$6.67) a day or around G$35,000 (US$175) a month.  Out of this she must pay transportation and probably has to contribute toward rent as well.  Now National Hardware is owned by one of the richest men in Guyana, who is also a close friend of Jagdeo.

Gerhard no amount of damage control could justify you exploiting the poor and vulnerable, you could do better, pay those workers move

Indeed, I would like to.  I have been giving small increases and will continue to do so as the business grows.  By no means am I satisfied with this, this is why I am doing other non-financial things for them as well.  The use of the land will actually be via a legal agreement that protects them.  It will give them a minimum of 5 years unrestricted use of the land, and all crops will belong to them.  The houselot will be an actual transfer of property.

GR, Does NIS has records to verify what you stated. When was the last time a NIS Inspector visited your Business???

Gerhard, there's no reason to justify anything,it matters not what you have done,they see things the way they want to see it.

Just take a look at BRB where he states some shyte about what you're paying your workers and the idiot never mentioned a thing about any other assistance/land etc you've given them.

Just tell these guys to f off.

Want me do it for you?

Why the rass you asking Gerhard this, why don't you go and ask the PPP thieves that same question nuh.

Gerhard the Guyanese populace would be very interested to see the NIS contributions of your workers

Shut yo patacake you getting kinda real stupid now.

Is GR LYING or NOT, IT is that SIMPLE. You can Huff and Puff like Papa Bear all you want, I dont care Rat's ass.

Come Clean Gerhard, come Clean

I can clearly see patacakes still not shut.
