Residents of Timehri, East Bank Demerara, are set to receive land titles within the next two weeks, securing legal ownership of lands they have been occupying for years, the Department of Public Information (DPI) yesterday reported.

President Irfaan Ali made this announcement during a community engagement at Timehri Base Road on Friday afternoon.

The squatter settlement has about 400 households and the Guyana Lands and Surveys Commission (GLSC) has advanced the process of regularising the area.
