Derrick Cummings in his letter in SN of June 29th titled, `Creating conditions for peaceful acceptance of election outcome’, is speculating that perhaps elders “behind the scenes [are engaging] in active shuttle diplomacy” to bring an end to Guyana’s four-month-old election impasse.
President Richard Nixon provides a useful example for David Granger to follow.
Today Guyana is at the exact same spot Nixon had been in those final days in 1974.
When the new president Ford was sworn in, one memorable sentence from his speech stood out, “Thank God, America’s long national nightmare has come to an end”.
It is time for Mr. Granger to show some good judgement and cooperate with the leaders of the free world and the Guyanese people and bring an end to Guyana’s long national nightmare.
