Newly-elected City Hall councillor, James Samuels turns 90 tomorrow and says he is shocked that most people have focused on his age instead of what he can bring to making his constituency and by extension the country better.
He plans as soon as possible to begin implementation of policies he campaigned for so that his community can start on a developmental path.
“I am an 89-year-old boy,” Samuels said earnestly as he sat down for an interview with Stabroek News yesterday.
“In myself I feel capable. I don’t know if others my age feel themselves capable…Why this big focus on age?
