Benn announces ban on ‘Skeng’ performing publicly in Guyana

Minister of Home Affairs Robeson Benn has announced that Jamaican dancehall artiste Kevon ‘Skeng’ Douglas has been banned from performing publicly in Guyana, while saying that authorities would take a similar stance against those promoting vulgarity and gun violence at public events and on airwaves.

“No artiste like Skeng will ever come again into this country; will not come again into this country under the signature of any person from the Ministry of Home Affairs or from the Guyana Police Force, will not come on a public stage,” the minister told a Guyana Police Force (GPF) Community Relations Department meeting.
