Town Clerk Royston King yesterday threatened to walk out of the statutory meeting of the Mayor and City Council after a councillor told him to shut up.
Councillor Gregory Fraser, of APNU, was on the floor addressing the city’s garbage collection problems, when King attempted to offer a correction.
“Mister Chairman I have to discuss the termination of the contract of Puran [Brothers] and Cevons [Waste Management],” Fraser said, prompting the interjection by King
However, Fraser appeared to be annoyed by the guidance provided by the Town Clerk. “Mr. Town Clerk I am not finished speaking. Mr. Town Clerk, I suggest you wait until I am finished speaking before you rebut, you don’t know what I am going to say,” he said. “Mr. Town Clerk you don’t know what I am going to say! You need to shut up!” an irate Fraser added.
