The chairman and some councillors of the Regional Democratic Council of Region Two (Pomeroon/ Supenaam) remain at loggerheads with the Regional Executive Officer (REO) over the “laid-back” approach he has taken towards the execution of projects.
In an interview with Stabroek News, Devanand Ramdatt, the regional chairman said that if the REO, Rupert Hopkinson continues to delay the projects, they would “have to move in the direction of a no-confidence motion.”
He pointed out that no motion has been prepared as yet and explained that by not getting projects done in a timely manner, the REO has been hindering the progress in the region. Ramdatt was disappointed that there has been a backlog of several key issues that needed to be addressed, some as old as six months and despite having discussions with the REO, there has been no improvement.
