-at police awards ceremony
In a likely response to increasing allegations of corruption within the Guyana Police Force (GPF), Minister of Home Affairs Robeson Benn emphasised the need for integrity and continuous improvement at the Force’s 185th Anniversary Awards Ceremony on Friday.
Addressing a large assembly of police officers, Benn called for persistent evaluation and introspection within the Force to enhance security and reduce crime.
“To reduce the issues of crime and violence is what we expect of you. We want the investments we are making—in new buildings, infrastructure, equipment, and other assets—to be commensurate with the progress we are making. I urge you all today to focus on integrity and continuous improvement at both personal and professional levels,” Benn stated.
