Aishalton divided by move to transfer ‘slapped’ teacher

John Adams

The decision of the Aishalton village council to seek the removal of Mathe-matics teacher John Adams from the Deep South Rupununi community has divided residents, with some condemning the move as politically-motivated.

“I do not support the position that is being taken by the village council,” former village Toshao Tony James told Stabroek News on Wednesday.

Already a petition containing several allegations against Adams is being circulated.

“It is wrong for the community of Aishalton to be mentioned as supporting the decision,” he added.
