We are
indeed living in some seriously interesting times in The Bahamas, where chief
political victimizers like Hubert Alexander Ingraham and his band of political
yes men and women – now find themselves in the victims’ seat.
I am one of those
Bahamians who have politically and socially been unmercifully victimized all of
my adult life; starting from the days of the C.C. Sweeting students’ revolt of
1983. I was scorned under the Pindling
years to the point of being turned down for every opportunity in which I
attempted to take advantage of in the public domain. Thanks to good Bahamian people who rescued me
along the way.
I was
severely victimized and blacklisted under the Hubert Ingraham Free National
Movement (FNM) – because of my unrelenting support of Floyd Watkins - the
party’s Delaporte standard bearer (whom Ingraham hated for personal reasons) from
1989-2002.
Then, I am
clearly too outspoken for a Hubert Ingraham; so he hates me double.
His friends
do not like Dennis Dames. In fact, some
of Ingraham’s pals abhor me so much, that they have boldly told many folks that
yours truly will never be anything of value in the country of his birth.
It’s the
FNM’s victimization that hurts the most to me, because it’s the party that I
have dutifully supported all of my voting life and a number of years before it.
I have been
employed with the Urban Renewal Program since October 2008 after months of
agonizing efforts to join the team; thanks to Tommy and Dion for having mercy
on me.
My experience
on the job with the FNM version of Urban Renewal was an unpleasant one, because
of the wickedness and evil acts against me by my colleagues; most of whom are
close friends and cohorts of King Hubert.
I know that the good reports in my personnel files are totally different
from what was secretly written and spoken about me to those in high places.
God is not
asleep!
The
government has changed in May, and many of the plotters are now on the streets;
and yes – this Bahamian is still standing - despite all the evil that was
worked on me to date; especially by FNMs.So, if they denied Hubert the opportunity to say goodbye in the House of Assembly – I say that’s good for his hip! Take that! How does it feel - sir?
