The Ethnic Relations Commission (ERC) has strongly condemned the reprehensible comments made by Ms. Jennifer Ally on Facebook, directed at the late Adrianna Younge and her grieving family.
The Commission expressed its outrage at the public sharing of such vile and hateful expressions during a time of mourning, further inflicting pain on a family already suffering a tragic loss. These actions violate the fundamental standards of decency and mutual respect necessary for harmony in our multi-ethnic society.
In response, the ERC has opened a formal case regarding this matter and has requested that Ms. Ally report to the Commission to address the content and intent of her remarks.
The ERC emphasized that while freedom of expression is protected, it must be exercised responsibly. The use of social media to spread hate, incite division, or cause psychological harm—especially in the context of bereavement—is unacceptable and contradicts the values enshrined in the Constitution of Guyana.
The Commission will continue to monitor the situation and is committed to acting in accordance with its constitutional mandate to promote harmony, prevent ethnic or racial hostility, and encourage respectful public discourse.
