“The pumps at the Lamaha Canal and the one within the vicinity of the Guyana Forestry Headquarters are not working and we are trying to provide as much support as we can.â€
Dr. Ramsammy also disclosed to members of the media corps that during the flood there was a high tide and the two pumps which are not operating are critical to this situation.

we had 5 inches of water from rainfall water With the drainage system at its best, the coastland was never able to take off more than three inches of rainfall ...so ppp/c need to stop wasting their time on nonsense and get down to the real issue here.

Minister Ramsammy said that the contractor, who was blazed for lagging behind on the $237M Patentia Pump station, is still moving slowly as the pump has not been installed as yet.
