London Bridge has Broken Down

I was utterly dismayed when I read the story of the New Providence Bridge which collapsed with a TPL truck carrying a cement mixer on Tuesday. One man lost his life leaving behind a 9 year old daughter just because Guyana is one third world country that still has dilapidated wooden bridges to access main areas. Further reading the publication in Staborek News, one can observe Minister Benn and the residence of the area playing “the blame game” as to who is responsible for the rehabilitation and up keep of the bridge. This is so typical of catastrophes in Guyana, Government Officials always find themselves putting the blame & responsibilities on someone else. Sad and Shameful.
