Lindeners are set for another protest, this time over the closure of the Kara Kara Toll Point last Friday by Town Clerk, Jonella Bowen on an instruction from the Ministry of Local Government.

“We have a town clerk that is not sure, who she is working with,” Linden Interim Management Committee (IMC) councillor, Charles Sampson declared on Friday before the Toll Point was closed. “She seems to be working with the Minister of Local Government and not the Linden municipality. She has said that she will order that the toll point be closed in violation of what the council is saying.”
