Moments after taking the oath as the newest member of GECOM, former Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee said that there is a need for the Commission’s staff to “reflect what Guyana looks like.”
Rohee made the statement after being asked about what are some of the priority issues that he hopes to raise with the Guyana Elections Com-mission (GECOM).
“See, we know when you go into a polling station or when you go to do registration certain perceptions which I would not wish to detail at this point in time, tend to emerge. So we need to have staff that reflects what Guyana looks like and this is going to be extremely important. It’s also going to be important for the staff to be professional in the conduct of the activities and in their attitude towards people as well,” Rohee told reporters.
