–as Guyanese cast their vote, electoral process progresses
DEPUTY Commissioner, Simon McBean and his administrative team for Division 4A, on Saturday, conducted a briefing for all ranks, ensuring every officer is fully prepared for their role today.
The session held at the Guyana Police Force Academy (Georgetown) was a crucial step in the security forces’ meticulous plan to maintain peace and order throughout the electoral process.
Commander McBean, according to information from the Guyana Police Force (GFP), emphasised the importance of a well-organised and professional approach to E-Day operations.
Each rank was assigned to a specific sector, a strategic measure designed to ensure clarity of function and responsibility.
This sector-based deployment means that every officer knows their precise location and duties, from securing polling stations to managing traffic and responding to any potential disturbances.
During the briefing, the team reviewed standard operating procedures, including protocols for voters’ assistance, crowd control, and the secure transport of ballot boxes and election materials.
The focus was on upholding the law impartially and a commitment to protecting the democratic process.
In his address to the ranks, Commander McBean expressed his confidence in the team’s professionalism and dedication.
He concluded the briefing by extending his best wishes to every officer, saying, “Good luck to all the ranks. We have a vital role to play in ensuring a safe and fair election for all citizens.”
Similar sessions were conducted in divisions across the country to ensure that all officers are prepared, ready and aware of their roles.
