For one’s enlightment !!!

Tell me which organisation the world over did not/does not have internal differences/strife, which at times may lead to its demise?

From time immemorial it existed. The Good Book tell us of Satan attempting to influence Jesus: Matt 4:9………All these things will I give thee, if thou will fall down and worship me” while in Act 5:3 points out deception, “Why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to and keep back part of the price of the land”?  The head of the NNP administration reminds me of the aforementioned quotes.

Articles published particularly in your recent publications make good reading, which should not only enlighten the general public of the state of affairs in our beloved country, but also calls us to think
again.

The article sub-headed “Something wrong in PWU” seems to tell the public and particularly members of PWU in part that there is a communist element at work to destabilise the union. There may or may not be such an element, but permit me to say , if you may, as a worker’s man throughout my life, I resisted the temptation to wash what might at times have been perceived as dirty linen.

The week before the article headed “Internal Strife in PWU”, I had a letter drafted for publication concerning certain conceived operation or lack thereof) which was/is paramount and as such I did not seek publication only to read “Internal Strife in PWU”.

Is the authoritative sources who said that the executive failed to hold a single meeting since being elected reliable as both the President and the PRO confirm that meetings were held. It may be a fact that the President was invited, but it is also possible that the union was invited. Was Mrs. Madonna Horford a past president invited to a like meeting or was the union invited? Members went to the meeting. I will ask who paid the bills, the host or PWU?

This bring to my mind invitations by Japan’s whaling body who invited Grenada on more than one occasion and on one occasion on the return to Grenada of a person who attending there was contention over money
given; is there a similarity ? If the union had/has to pay, accountability maybe a problem, which is a common issue with some delegate/s organisation/government.

Now! Who does not side step questions? When a reporter raises the question re P.M Mitchell mode of transport recently, what did the Press Secretary do? When the US President Trump was questioned by CNN
what did he do?  This is the Modus operandi of most. When the President of PWU was questioned by the facilitator on Beyond The Headline last Monday re a matter, what did the President do? I laud her response.

Mr “Retired Worker” the PRO answered your question/s but I tell you there is more in the mortar than the pestle.
