Yetming afraid of opposition politics?

THE EDITOR: Subsequent to the ONR’s loss in 1981, Mr Yetming could not have been found for a number of years. Then again in 1991, with NAR’s loss he disappeared. Having approached Manning in 2000 to assist in running the PNM’s campaign and being told “No Way Pancho” he ran to a meeting at Jerry Hadeed’s home in Santa Cruz to beg to come in the UNC. Panday in his eternal historical desire to maintain a broad-based political party warmly welcomed him. As soon as UNC is thrown into opposition politics, two years later Yetming is uncomfortable. He was absent from the recently Local Government elections campaign and is now subliminally talking that Panday should go, and not even serving his constituents. But Mr Yetming, leadership is not running away when your party has lost. Strong character is not about arrogance, egotism and lack of strength and courage. Understand carefully what leadership or about before attempting to even contemplate power.

Is it that you are looking for an excuse for disciplinary action by the UNC to join your friends in the PNM Government since you can’t withstand opposition politics for the next four years?
Hard work in service is the name of the game in politics, not running away and blaming others when times are rough.
