APNU+AFC regional councillors are willing to give Carl Parker a second chance to serve as Regional Executive Officer (REO) but those from the PPP/C yesterday voted against him returning to serve in Region Nine.

Vice-Chairman Karl Singh told Stabroek News yesterday that the matter was brought up during yesterday’s statutory meeting and councillors were asked to vote on a motion to bar Parker from returning to serve in the region.

PPP/C councillors voted against his return, while those representing the APNU and AFC opted to abstain from voting.
