Georgetown’s financial, solid waste, drainage, infrastructural and other woes are the product of concerted efforts by the PPP/C to discredit the Mayor and City Council (M&CC), main opposition APNU yesterday said.
This is not the first time APNU, its opposition counterpart the AFC or other stakeholders have drawn this conclusion. Nevertheless, during a press conference yesterday, the coalition reiterated that the M&CC has been unable to effectively care for the city owing to factors manufactured by the PPP/C government.
Top among them is the fact that local government elections have not been held since 1994. Ronald Bulkan, APNU MP and Shadow Local Government Minister, told reporters during the conference that the current mayor and councillors of the Georgetown municipality were elected since 1994
