Clement Rohee, Guyana National Security Minister says that he will not be bowing to increased calls for his resignation in wake of the recent Linden shootings.
The Minister was adamant that he in no way, form or fashion had anything to do with the shooting and that further, he has a “clear conscience on the matter.”
“He is the one that has to exercise the judgment,” said Rohee in reference to Senior Superintendent Clifton Hickens, the Commander on the ground at the time of the shooting.
“I stand by what the President said…I wasn’t there I didn’t given any instructions oral or otherwise.”
The Minister said that he was rather pleased to see the police issue a release clarifying that the operation at Linden had no political directives
“We don’t have security of tenure,” said Rohee, as he reaffirmed that he serves under Ramotar and “I will stand firmly behind his statement.”
Rohee says that he will continue to serve the people without fear or favour, prejudice or ill will and added that he is going to continue to serve as Minister as long as Ramotar will have him.
“My conscience is very clear on this matter…I will not run in a cupboard and hide.
