Presidential Candidate of the People’s Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C), Donald Ramotar has threatened Berbice lawyer, Charrandass Persaud with a lawsuit, for saying that Ramotar did not attend the University of Guyana.The lawyer allegedly made the comments on a Live weekly call- in programme, ‘Issues of the People’,Atlanta Braves Dansby Swanson Jersey, a programme paid for by the Alliance for Change (AFC) and aired on Dave’s Television Channel Eight (DTV-8).Persaud read the lawyer’s letter signed by Attorney- at- Law,Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Ricky Nolasco Jersey, Adrian Anamayah on the TV programme last Saturday evening and then apologised for the previous comments.He then stated that Mr. Ramotar did not attend UG was inaccurate and said he received information that proved that Ramotar did attend UG.“I got that information from the now Registrar of the University of Guyana,Detroit Tigers Omar Infante Jersey, Mr. Vincent Alexander. I did not check with him before,Atlanta Braves Bartolo Colon Jersey, and there is where I went wrong. He attended University of Guyana. He has a Degree in Economics. So, Mr. Donald Ramotar,Atlanta Braves Sean Rodriguez Jersey, I’m sorry that I said you did not attend the University of Guyana; you did attend UG; we now know that. And I will tell other people that you attended the University of Guyana and you do have a Degree in Economics”,Miami Marlins Edinson Volquez Jersey, Persaud said on live television.Meanwhile,Jhoulys Chacin Jersey, Head-teacher of the Rose Hall Estate Primary School in East Canje, Ms Beverly Hazelwood also consulted the services of the Anamayah Law Firm and sent a lawyer’s letter to Persaud for allegedly saying that she was “a sick woman” on the same programme.“I never said anything to do with you being mentally ill and you should be in an asylum. I said that you’re a sick woman as a headmistress to tell the children that they cannot bring their lunch to school,Colby Rasmus Jersey, and they must go home to eat their lunch and come back to school because they make too much noise. I have seven affidavits from adults who heard you say that, Beverly Hazelwood. And I will not apologise to you for saying that you’re a sick woman. You’re in a position where you’re teaching children,Scott Feldman Jersey, and you’re gonna tell the children that they cannot bring their lunch to school, that they must go home and come back. What kind of teacher are you?” Persaud said.Persaud said that he never said that the headteacher was mentally ill but rather she was sick. He added that she should have encouraged the children to bring their lunch and eat it at school and play in the school yard.The comments on the show were made after a few complaints came to the lawyer about the head-teacher allegedly telling her students that they cannot bring their lunch to school and that they had to go home to eat their lunch and then return to the school.Persaud said that he will not apologise to her, as the lawyer’s letter mandated. |
