AFC CONDEMNS THE UNLAWFUL AND FORCED ENTRY INTO STATE HOUSE
The Alliance For Change condemns the unlawful and forceful entry into State House this morning, Thursday, December 15, 2022, which resulted in injuries to a rank of the Presidential Guard and life threatening injuries sustained by the perpetrator. Thankfully, the intrusion was contained.
State House, is the established and official residence of the President of Guyana and his family. It is not to be trifled with, and every facility and resource must be used to protect its occupants and it’s sanctity. A full investigation must be carried out to ascertain the true motives, intentions, and associations, if any, of this man. Already, and regrettably, rumour and conjecture have dominated the discourse about today’s events – ranging from the actions of an insane man, to this being an organized, planned and targeted attack.
Only a professional inquiry can unearth the facts and circumstances, and only then, can a proper response, for future occurrences, be implemented.
From a national security standpoint, this breach must be treated with the highest levels of seriousness and importance.
End.
