The Guyana Police Force on Friday announced the promotion of several of its members – subordinate officers and constables.
Police Commissioner, David Ramnarine, in a New Year statement, urged policemen and women to improve their performance. He congratulated those who have been promoted and urged those who have not been to be patient.
“To those who have benefitted through elevation to a higher rank, be reminded that with promotion comes greater responsibility, and increased expectation and I ask, that as you celebrate in euphoria, to remember to be circumspect. For others, yours is somewhere near. Be patient and continue striving for excellence,” he said.
Ramnarine, who has been acting for several months now in the absence of substantive Police Commissioner, Seelall Persaud who has been ordered to remain on leave, thanked members of that law enforcement agency for their cooperation during his time at the helm. “It has been a heartwarming, pleasurable and learning experience, leading you on in the latter halef of 2017, and I sincerely thank you, each and everyone of our support elements, high and low, for affording me your full support, throughout,” Ramnarine said.
Following is the full text of the acting Police Commissioner’s New Year Message. That is followed by a list of the subordinate officers and constables who have been promoted.
Dear Officers, Inspectors and other ranks, all colleagues of this the noblest of profession.
The year 2017 will soon be over and a new one will dawn upon us.
As we reflect on the year 2017, all of which is known, let us remember first and foremost that ours is an onerous calling, which has been fulfilled to general satisfaction, notwithstanding the numerous demands, and challenges we faced, in particular by those amongst us who tarnished the image of this institution and brought it into disrepute.
Let us resolve to improve out quality of service, as already we are making great strides forward in solving serious and other crimes, but obviously much more can and must be done to prevent these crimes.
The year ahead will see us facing greater demands for Police Services and therefore our Professionalism must be compatible.
I have no doubt that with increased human and other resources, those increased expectations from our master and other key stakeholders will be met with satisfaction, and in this regard I urge that we each make that special resolve to improve individually and collectively, in pursuit of the objectives of the Force.
It has been a heartwarming, pleasurable and learning experience, leading you on in the latter halef of 2017, and I sincerely thank you, each and everyone of our support elements, high and low, for affording me your full support, throughout.
To those who have benefited through elevation to a higher rank, be reminded that with promotion comes greater responsibility, and increased expectation and I ask, that as you celebrate in euphoria, to remember to be circumspect. For others, yours is somewhere near. Be patient and continue striving for excellence.
Congratulations for giving a satisfactory performance in 2017 and best wishes for greater performance in 2018.
