The Words Of Larance Ramesh Maharaj

Extracts From A Speech Delivered at the NDP 29th Annual Convention in Kingstown on

KINGSTON, St Vincent: Larance Ramesh Maharaj, former Attorney General of Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday said that Prime Minister of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Dr. Ralph Gonsalves is one of some Caribbean Prime Ministers, who in recent times have shown signs of becoming dictators.

“As a matter of fact, I have a duty to tell you this. Whenever a Prime Minister decides to tell his people that whatever you do in the court … I go give you hell, that’s the sign of a dictator….”


He said that some Prime Ministers take away people’s land without proper compensation and without any regard for the decisions of the court of law. According to him, Papa Doc used to do that - a clear sign of dictatorship - that is probably galloping in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.


Making reference to the constitution of SVG, Maharaj noted that it clearly states that citizens desire that the society will be so ordered as to recognize the principles of democracy, free institutions, and social justice and equality for all.


Elaborating on the manner in which some Caribbean Prime Minister publicly abuse members of civil society who oppose them, including the media and non governmental bodies, Maharaj spoke of a number of incidents involving the prime minister of SVG.


“… in my research, I heard that your Prime Minister called people ‘chattering nabobs in bars’ because people criticize him.


“I understand, too, your Prime Minister didn’t like what the people were saying how he stuck his middle finger up, and he said in answer to you the people … he has a perfect middle finger.


“I heard when members of the media and other people criticize him, although that might be on a few occasions, he said that is learned helplessness. He said when the NGOs stood up to prevent him from giving what they said was the Tobago Cays to what they alleged were friends, he said that they were dishonest, liars, and terrorists…”


“So, what Dictators do, some of them start to call themselves ‘Papa’…” Maraaj said echoing the word “Pap” used by Prime Minister Gonsalves when referring to persons involved in the Ottley Hall Inquiry who had taken members of the commission to court.
