(DPI) Despite persistent rain President Irfaan Ali, on Sunday morning, led the national clean up initiative and participated in a tree-planting exercise at the new Vreed-en-Hoop roundabout in Region Three.
The initiative first began in 2022, under President Ali’s leadership, and has since been rolled out annually across the ten administrative regions in collaboration with key stakeholders.
The president remained hands on with the initiative, frequently joining citizens in removing waste and scrap metal from communities nationwide.
While the president was in Region Three, other government officials including the Prime Minister Brigadier (Ret’d) Mark Phillips, members of civil society and the private sector were at different locations playing their part.
Members of the joint services including the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) turned out in their numbers, demonstrating the public’s widespread support for the government’s cleaner and greener Guyana initiative. Following the clean-up and tree-planting exercise, President Ali journeyed to the Hydronie-Parika Markets. He interacted with vendors and shoppers and listened to their issues.
