Ram’s presidential hopes

Dear Editor,

I FEEL very sorry for Chris Ram. I read with interest a series of letters in mainstream media on Chris Ram, and I wonder how he’s been processing the contents of these letters.

The contents of all of the letters about the individual I can attest are very accurate. He indeed possesses qualities of an insecure person. He may not remember me or know me at all, but years ago in the mid-90s, I was a gardener working with the people next door to him on Waterloo Street.

And I can recall when the late Cheddi B Jagan died, I thought he was slipping into a sorry state. Almost everyday during that period, I recall seeing him walking in his yard mumbling to himself that he has to become the next President after Cheddi. I was even there when the late Janet handed over the presidency to Bharrat Jagdeo and Ram was growing more perturbed. He lamented who is Bharrat Jag- deo, it is he who has to become President. Something is definitely wrong with the fella and he wanted to be President a very long time. It doesn’t matter which political party.

Yours sincerely, Shankar
