Dear Editor,
I reject the crass and out right mischief aimed at implying that my company and I were awarded a contract by the then administration during what was an ongoing approach to the court in June 2020.
The article titled “woman who filed recount challenge given $7.5 million contract in June” and carried in Sunday’s Kaieteur News is aimed at implying that as I was either benefiting from a government contract in June 2020 or was “awarded” a government contract for my constitutional right to approach the court.
What the newspaper clearly omitted is that the letter, they claimed to have seen, documents a legitimate contract signed in June 2019 and NOT 2020. This letter has been a source of vilification from many political opponents as they displayed it on their social media as they seek to imply it is an award of some kind. The letter signed by Mr Kenneth Jordan clearly shows the date as June 2019 and NOT 2020.
I am strong in my support for a party of my choice, I followed the law in setting up my company like any other Guyanese, I lawfully tender for contracts like any other Guyanese and I reserve the right to approach the court like any other Guyanese. What I find crass, is that the media could have done an entire story on me and my support for the coalition when I approached the court earlier this year but could not afford me the right to respond to their assumptions or blatant attack on my character. It is my sincere hope that Guyanese who wish to contribute to their country is not vilified for their love of country and their work to Guyana a better place.
Regards
Ulita Moore
