–urges continued adherence to Public Safety Order

THE Ministry of Home Affairs has announced that Guyana is returning to a state of normalcy following recent unrest, with normal business activities set to resume nationwide from today.
According to the ministry, the situation across the country has stabilised, and the public can expect a return to daily routines, except for one isolated area along the Mabura trail to Linden, where authorities are actively working to resolve ongoing issues to prevent any disruption to the broader restoration efforts.

Minister of Home Affairs, Robeson Benn, assured the public that the Joint Services-including the Guyana Police Force, Guyana Fire Service, Guyana Defence Force, and other agencies-remain fully engaged to ensure the continued safety of all citizens.
In recent days, several individuals have been arrested in connection with the unrest, and comprehensive reports are being prepared for further action. The minister emphasised that any future roadblocks or criminal acts will be met with a prompt and decisive response by security forces.

While the overall atmosphere is calm, the ministry has advised citizens to continue exercising caution. Residents are strongly encouraged to remain at home and in safe spaces between the hours of 22:00hrs and 05:00hrs.
Although there has been no formal amendment to the existing Public (Safety) Order 2025, this advisory is intended to support security operations and enable rapid responses to any emerging incidents.

These measures, the ministry emphasised, are part of an ongoing commitment to maintaining a high level of security and protecting the well-being of all residents.

The ministry expressed gratitude to citizens for their co-operation and patience during this period, underscoring the collective effort required to ensure public safety and the smooth resumption of normal life.

Minister Benn reassured persons of the government’s dedication to safeguarding the nation, and called on all Guyanese to remain vigilant and supportive as the country moves forward into a period of renewed stability.
