(Kaieteur News) – I tip my hat to the Barima Commission of Inquiry Chair, Justice Godfrey Smith. This is how real men differentiate themselves. Under duress from the U.S. visa revocation action meted out against him, he offered his resignation.

Some of the qualms I had of this Belizean jurist, I now ease, even relinquish. In contrast, what I think about Pres. Ali and his decision to reject Justice Smith’s offer of resignation is best left unsaid, best left to the imagination. I still help: whatever the absolute worst that I can think of Guyana’s president, he just outdid me. Let that be sufficient. Let me be done talking about those who lower this country below the Marianas trench.
