Kaieteur News caption confusion

Shack sentenceSome editor at Kaieteur News has made a complete hash of the caption to this photo in this article. Their choice of caption makes it appear as though the children live in the shack with the jumbie of their mother.

Of course this is petty compared to the much larger issue at hand. One hopes that the Minister of Social Security the Honourable Priya Manickchand, once again puts her money where her mouth is and steps up to the plate and rescues these four, now motherless, boys. Surely leaving them in the hands of their junkie father will not be in their best interest. To her credit the minister has done well in similar situations previously and one hopes she takes the necessary action in this situation as she has proven she is very capable of doing.
