Approximately 6,000 inhabitants of the Kariña indigenous village, in Sucre state, benefited from a special registration day that was deployed in the Cacique Maragüey University Village, located in Santa Fe.

The mayor of Cumaná, Pedro Figueroa, explained that the day that began on Monday, January 26, will run until February 1, in order to guarantee identity documents to the inhabitants of this indigenous town.

“We are making an articulated effort with the Administrative Service for Identification, Migration and Aliens (SAIME) to guarantee the fundamental thing, the right to identity, allowing our indigenous communities to fully access State services and benefits,” said the mayor.

For his part, Félix González, governor of the Kariña indigenous people, stressed the importance of this day, which will allow residents to obtain their identification document directly in the territory, the Latest News reported.

“Many indigenous brothers had never had a ID card in their hands and thanks to these inclusion policies it is a reality that in just a few hours they can have their identification documents, this is another achievement of the Bolivarian Government and the Revolution,” he stressed.
