With elections imminent in the New Year, the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) has officially opened a new office, at Charity, Pomeroon.
The building which will house a number of employees was constructed at a cost of $15M.
To facilitate the official opening of the new Essequibo office, yesterday, Deputy Chief Elections Officer Mr. Vishnu Persaud, and Logistics Manager, Mr. Colin April, attended a simple ceremony at the new Charity office.
Also in attendance were Registration Officer attached at the Anna Regina office, Roxanne Smith and Mr. Doodnauth Singh.
Persaud said that it was necessary for GECOM to have acquired a permanent office especially in Charity, Essequibo since registration of persons in that district is important in the light of brewing elections.
He called on the staff to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner at all times, being civil to people who would be visiting the office for registration and other purposes, since the image of GECOM’s is one to be protected, and one which further transforms to elections management.
Persaud said that the new Charity office will serve residents of Paradise, Charity and persons in the Pomeroon River. Activities will be heightened as elections activities intensify.
The Guyana Elections office was first established in October 2005 at Charity. The new GECOM office was completed on November 12. Prior to the new and permanent office, staff members were housed in the Agriculture Extension Center, at Charity.
