Head of State Bharrat Jagdeo is insisting that the annual cost of the travelling for the entire Government is on average $200M. He said that it is not accounted for at the Office of the President but rather with the Accountant General at the Ministry of Finance.
According to Jagdeo, there is one travel vote for the entire government.
The President also responded to Leader of the Alliance for Change, Raphael Trotman, who had told media operatives that the cost of the President’s overseas travel over the past 2 ½ years was nearing $1B.
“If the entire Government is $200M, I worry for this country if they (AFC) get into power…Mathematics is important.”
The President insists that his allowances are the same as a Minister or a regular staff or a Permanent Secretary.
He added that official visits such as his recent trip to Iran are paid for by the host country.
The APNU+AFC is a corrupt cabal of racists. They did nothing that benefitted ordinary Guyanese, presided over the must corrupt and incompetent government Guyana has ever had and sought to rig their way back into office. Now in opposition lies and racism is their go-to mantra. Here we expose them ....
The AFC somethings that they come up with they function like a youth group but the youth group function more better than them they just want to give the people of this country the wrong impression of the government and cause confusion
ReplyDeleteLike the AFC gon got to get so maths lessons they entire party such go Pato and learn some maths...........
ReplyDeleteWell what else we could actually expect from the AFC...a bunch of dunce who are vying for power, this is just ridiculous...this mocking stalk for a party don't have the common sense nor the intelligence for an education, that we would expect them to give an accurate figure on the government spending, they want proof and still stupid!!!
ReplyDeleteThe worthless AFC, well this was expected of them...they always want some sort of proof, they should consider themselves lucky that the government hasn’t called on them for proof on Morris case with them along with there drug lords they having close ties with...
ReplyDeleteThese people are worst than preschool students, they want to prove that they are right with there view on the president trips, but little do they know that the joke is on them now, these idiots cant calculate simple figures
ReplyDeleteTravel costs, and they know it. It is a lot of money, especially to go overseas. But that is something that they should be able to predict and prevent if possible. The finance minister will indeed have to get an Improving focus on the situation since this can´t continue like this for long.
