Shri Prakash Gossai on the political trail in Leguan - a propaganda press flashback
Shri thinks he is shrewd. he does well masquerading as a man of God…but we know that Shri is a conman and when he is in Guyana he is a political charlatan hanging out with some of the biggest gangsters this nation has ever seen…and don’t believe for one second he doesn’t know that his ‘friends’ are criminals.
Leguan remembers Cheddi Jagan
Georgetown, GINA, March 29, 2007
Hundreds of Leguan residents turned out on March 27 to remember the life and works of the late President Dr. Cheddi Jagan, and to reiterate their support for the People’s Progressive Party (PPP).
The Leguan arm of the PPP arranged a special programme at the island’s secondary school to mark the 10th death anniversary of the late leader who passed away on March 6, 1997.
A packed auditorium listened with rapt attention to the struggles Dr. Cheddi Jagan made for a better Guyana. [Cheddi Jagan worked with Forbes Burnham and the PNC and knew of the killing of Walter Rodney among other crimes against the people of Guyana]
There were special renditions and recitations from residents, expressing their admiration for the late president.
Shri Prakash Gossai, Special Assistant to President Bharrat Jagdeo who delivered the feature address urged the residents to emulate the late Head of State. ‘Man is by nature an imitating animal and we must strive to imitate the best.”
Gossai encouraged the audience to live up to Dr Jagan’s teachings noting that, “Dr. Jagan was the president of the people, for the people, by the people. His rich legacy and spirit live until this day.”
March is very significant in the lives of Guyanese since it marks the birth and death anniversaries of the former president who took office in October 1992.
One of the overriding legacies of Dr Jagan, who born on March 22, 1918 in Port Mourant, Berbice, was his fight to restore democracy and promote togetherness of the Guyanese people.
His struggles for independence are well documented.
Dr. Jagan began his political career in the 1940s when he returned to Guyana from the United States where he studied dentistry and economics.
Preceding his overseas studies, Dr. Jagan completed his secondary education at Queen’s College in Georgetown.
