To call Calvin Roberts, 27, ambitious might be an understatement.
Roberts has his sights set on many achievements, not least of which is becoming a medical doctor. Roberts, of Lokono (Arawakan) ancestry, also wants to be a restauranteur specialising in indigenous cuisine.
For now, however, he is only a medical laboratory technician, a youth ambassador, volunteer, student and Mr Guyana Independence 2022, a title he won in late May and which he hopes to use as a platform to inspire other young indigenous men to make the foray into pageantry. In this regard, he is hoping that authorities would introduce a Mr Indigenous Heritage pageant.
