Robeson Benn presides at E’bo flag raising
A ceremony in observance of Guyana’s 46th Independence Anniversary was held on the tarmac of the Anna Regina Fire Station. Minister of Public Works and Communication, Robeson Benn, was the government official at the ceremony.
Region Two Chairman, Parmanand Persaud; Vice Chairman, Vishnu Samaroo; Commander “G” Division, Paul Williams; and senior 
members of the fire station and the Guyana Defence Force, Anna Regina were also present.
In his address to Essequibians, Minister Benn implored Guyanese to strive for unity, which he believes will lend to the security of the country.
He charged that unity will not be achieved unless social, political and economic progress are attained.
Minister Benn urged Guyanese to unite and work in harmony, in order to establish the nation for generations to come.
Benn added, “Essequibo continues to make great contributions to Guyana’s development, especially in the area of Agriculture.”
The Minister inspected the guard of honor, while Persaud and Commander of “G” Division took the salute from members of the disciplined services. They then assembled for the symbolic hoisting of the Golden Arrowhead at midnight.
