The Guyana Police Association (GPA), yesterday held its Annual General Meeting, during which a new 23-person executive body was elected.
A police press release related that Inspector Roseann Forde was elected to the post of President of the Association, while Sergeant Shaundel Chapman was elected Vice-President.
“Taking up the positions as General Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Secretary and Assistant Treasurer are Corporal Angela David, Sergeant Stephen Clement, Corporal Karen Seaford and Lance Corporal Jeremiah Trim, respectively, with Lance Corporal Asif Hakim being the Public Relations Officer,” the release informed.
It was reported that the outgoing President, Inspector Mohan Khan, who did not contest, during his report at the meeting, alluded to the significant progress made by the executive.
It was noted that under his tenure, the Guyana Police Force (GPF) saw the introduction of several initiatives, including the Guyana Trinidad Mutual (GTM) Health Insurance Plan and an initiative to acquire house lots for ranks, among others.
Khan reportedly charged the new team to continue to forge ahead with new initiatives that will better the lives of officers.
It was stated that Forde, addressing Khan’s charge, said that she will continue to move the Association forward from where he left off, bringing new ideas and initiatives to improve the welfare of ranks and make the GPA and by extension, the GPF, a better place for members.
