– fatalities set to surpass last year’s
The Ministry of Home Affairs launched its “Do the Right Thing” campaign on Friday with a focus on the upcoming National Road Safety Month in November in an effort to emphasise its goal to promote safe practices and behaviours by road users.
Speaking at a press conference in the Ministry of Home Affairs boardroom, Minister of Home Affairs Robeson Benn called for public and institutional support, highlighting the responsibility of every Guyanese to contribute to safety and security.
The campaign aims to extend beyond road safety to include other safety and security concerns in public spaces, social media, and the press. The decision to focus on road safety, Minister Benn disclosed, was made after consultations with the National Road Safety Council.
