The Guyana Defence Force (GDF) yesterday said that Colonel Omar Khan is to act as Chief of Staff of the GDF in the absence of Brigadier Godfrey Bess and Colonel Julius Skeete.
In a statement in response to what it described as “irresponsible and reckless social media commentary”, the GDF said that it had approved a request for Bess and Skeete to attend training in the United States. Bess is currently attending a three-week residency of a two-year Distance Education Programme offered by the United States Army War College and will return to office on Monday, July 3rd, 2022.
