Brumell must now stop looking to Rohee to manage Police Force – Harmon
Commissioner of Police and Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee, at the opening of the Guyana Police Force Junior Officers’ conference.
Now that Leroy Brumell has been confirmed as Commissioner of Police, he must take control of the force and not look over his shoulders to Home Affairs Minister, Clement Rohee, when it comes to the day-to-day management of the Guyana Police Force.
This was the advice proffered by A Partnership For National Unity (APNU) Joseph Harmon, having learnt of Brumell’s confirmation as Top Cop.
Harmon in an invited comment told this publication that Brumell must now take forceful control of the police force.
“He must now get down to serious policing,” according to Harmon, who says too that among the first things Brumell has to do, is to have all the ranks that have been relegated to desk jobs be put to work.
He said that the ranks that had the ‘balls’ to stand up to the Home Affairs Minister were penalized by being transferred to hinterland districts or sent to do desk jobs. Harmon cited as an example, Assistant Commissioner David Ramnarine, who had questioned the allocations of money for the force during the elections period of 2011.
“All of the ranks doing desk jobs and not utilizing their skills must now be put to work to do real policing.”
According to Harmon, “Brumell must now take a stand and forget Rohee.”
Leroy Brumell was yesterday confirmed as substantive Commissioner of Police having acted in the position since the resignation of his predecessor Henry Greene.
