On Wednesday last, ranks of the Guyana Police Force both serving and retired, gathered at the Central Immigration and Passport Office to wish Assistant Commissioner Dale Andrew Alves farewell as he heads into retirement.
Assistant Commissioner Alves has an impressive 34 years of service in the Guyana Police Force and functioned in many different areas, such as the Tactical Services Unit (TSU), Commander ‘G’ Division and Deputy Commander of ‘A’ Division,” the force said in a statement.
The Deputy Chief Immigration Officer, who also served as a drill instructor at the Felix Austin Police College during his earlier years in the Force, was referred to by many as the Assistant Commissioner Extraordinaire, and both senior and junior ranks from the Immigration Office fervently expressed admiration and gratitude to the outgoing official.
Commissioner of Police Seelall Persaud DSM, noted that Alves remarkably transitioned from a background in the Tactical Field and was able to adapt and function incredibly well in the area of immigration which requires exceptional people skills and tolerance.
Assistant Commissioner ‘Law Enforcement’ Mr. Paul Williams, Assistant Commissioner ‘Operations’, Mr. Nigel Hoppie DSM, Director of Prisons (ag), Gladwin Samuels and other serving and retired senior officers of the Guyana Police Force, described Alves’ thinking as critical and out of the box.
But perhaps the most impacting remarks were those of the staff of the Central Immigration and Passport Office. Through dance and poetry, the ranks sent emotional waves across the room. Assistant Commissioner Alves proceeded on pre-retirement leave on February 7 and will be officially retired on April 1, 2018. He is succeeded by Senior Superintendent P. Langevine who served as acting Deputy Chief Immigration Officer and Deputy Commander of ‘C’ Division.
