President Ramotar and First Lady usher in New Year at Camp Ayanganna
President Donald Ramotar, and First Lady Deolatchmee Ramotar with Police Commissioner (Ag) Seelall Persaud and his family at Eve Leary.
Head of State Donald Ramotar and First Lady Deolatchmee Ramotar ushered in the New Year, witnessing a dazzling display of fireworks that illuminated the night sky over the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) base Camp Ayanganna, on the stroke of midnight.
The Head of State, and his wife, were joined by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, his wife Yvonne Hinds, and senior government, military and joint services’ officers who gathered with their spouses, at the Officers’ Mess for the Force’s Old Year’s Night ball. After witnessing the stunning fireworks display from their vantage point at the Officers’ Mess, the First Couple stopped in at the Senior Non-Commissioned Officers’ Ball in the same base. That ball was a hive of activity and the President and his wife took the opportunity to show their moves to several popular songs, much to the ranks’ pleasure.
The First Couple was then whisked to the Guyana Police Force Officers’ Mess, Eve Leary, where, along with Prime Minister Hinds and his wife, they interacted with senior ranks, and danced.
After spending close to an hour at the police headquarters, the President and his wife visited several of the parties being held at popular night spots, enjoying the scene until the wee hours of the morning with other partygoers.
For the President, it was a rare occasion to relax before what will be a hectic year as he leads his political party into early General and Regional elections.
