During his feature address at the opening of the four-day Inspectors and Sergeants conference yesterday, Minister of Home Affairs Robeson Benn urged the law enforcers to be ‘peace makers’ saying that without peace there won’t be progress.

Benn said: “If we do not have peace in Guyana, we will not have progress, we will not have prosperity.” The minister further noted that having peace will guarantee progress, which will essentially guarantee prosperity for the future generations.

“If peace is not guaranteed, all else will fail,” he posited.
