propaganda press! freedom in Guyana

Dear propaganda press:
I read with grave concern the Stabroek News Editorial on December 31, 2007, entitled ‘Decency and the rule of law’.

Firstly, as regards to the rule of law, it is this newspaper which seems bent on subverting the rule of law by carrying out a trial of me in its columns almost on a daily basis, with that paper being the sole judge, jury and executioner. The matter referred to has been reported to the police. I think that the correct thing to do is to await the findings of the police. Read the rest of this entry »

The Orange Democratic Movement has put off its protest rally to tomorrow after hours of running battles with the police in Nairobi.

“I have done a walk-about recently and I asked people what were their major concerns. No one raised this one [torture of the men] except some sections of the media. You and I know the major concerns of people nothing to do with allegations of torture of two men.

Raila also said he was willing to participate in an interim government whose only purpose would be to prepare for a re-run of the presidential election.
“The interim government should last no more than three months,” he said, adding that such a poll should be conducted by an independent body and not the ECK, which has been discredited as partisan and whose members are President Kibaki’s appointees.

NAIROBI (Reuters) - Opposition leader Raila Odinga vowed to defy police and hold a rally on Thursday to demand Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki quit over a disputed election, which has sparked violence that has killed more than 300 people.
