I wish to call on the Hon .Minister of Home Affairs of the Government of Guyana to act early and clear the environment of the Charity Police Station. As a long- standing member of the Charity Police Station Management Committee, there has been a call to make the police station a safe place. The compound was subsequently fenced, but still remains sandwiched by shabby stalls around the station compound, thus compromising the safety of the officers working in the building. The mighty Pomeroom River is just a few metres away from the police station and with the official declaration of Charity as a port of entry; the police station is in urgent need of sprucing up. The river and land transport have to be immediately annualized and dealt with. I am also urging the top cop to also pay a visit to the area to get first-hand knowledge of the undesirable situation facing the ranks at the station.
I personally recommended some years ago that a senior rank such as a superintendent be based at the station so as to give guidance to the subordinate ranks. Please let us avoid another Bartica episode in Charity.
The business community remains supportive of the security forces present in the region as a whole.
Let’s make Charity one of the outstanding ports of entry and secondary townships in our country.
All for your information towards better service for our society.
