OIL prices will skyrocket to US$100 per barrel, but the rich in Trinidad and Tobago will continue to get richer and the poor poorer.
Yesenia Gonzalez, the 44-year-old Venezuelan psychic, is so confident this prediction would materialise in 2005, that she said she was prepared to put her reputation as a “top international psychic” on the line.
“By next month it will hit $60 and move in the vicinity of $67 towards the end of the year “she said, adding that the impending huge leap in oil prices came to her in a vision which she saw as plain as day. Gonzalez also talked about a future devaluation of the TT dollar, saying that this country will eventually end-up like nearby oil-rich Venezuela, where there has been an astronomical devaluation of the Bolivar over the past decade.
She said she felt compelled to contact the Express to warn the nation of the bumpy road ahead.
“Again I don’t guess what is going to happen. I am no economist. I am no businesswoman. I am a spiritual woman, a healer who gets flashes of what is to come,” she said.
She said that the evil ones will soon resume the kidnappings, adding distress to several families. “Right now they (kidnappers) are targeting a big man in the community”‘ she said via telephone from her Mt Lambert residence.
Concerning the whereabouts of 11-year-old Vijay Persad who was abducted a year ago from his parents home at Indian Walk Village, Princes Town, Yesenia said he was “alive, in good health and happy where he is”.
“I can’t say exactly where he is being kept. But it is by someone whom he knows very well and it is close to the sea. I have a strong suspicion that it is in Tobago. But the truth will soon be told,” she said.Yesenia also had more grim news.
She talked at length of the increase in murders, crime, and road accidents, which will run up into three and four a day towards the end of 2004. She predicted the crash of a major credit union and an upsurge in business at Colonial Life Insurance Co Ltd.
“There will also be an arrest of a big man here by the USA authorities; problems at the Central Bank which will be centered around a conflict of interest,” she said.
She insisted that those interested in making some money, should go “all out to make it now” because tough days are coming despite the huge increase in oil prices. “You see the problem in Trinidad was never money. The problem has always been how to make it and keep it,” she said.
