…says Govt will resist attempts to thwart reforms
Guyana’s President David Granger, on Thursday, during his address at the opening of the annual Police Officers’ Conference sent a very clear message to the top brass of Police Force that his administration is very much dissatisfied with the manner in which the issue of corruption is being addressed among ranks.
The President told those gathered that corruption must be tackled from the very top and throughout the Force, saying “if corruption is concealed, it will continue”. He stated that corruption cannot simply be addressed by transfers, promotions or demotions, but must be tackled head on.
The Head of State also said that with the Security Sector Reform Programme ongoing, his administration will confront any effort to prevent the reform of the security sector.
