LGC President says past administration’s financial records hampering elections

Hilbert Shields

President of the Lusignan Golf Club (LGC), Aleem Hussain has blamed the delay for holding club elections on the former administration but that claim has been refuted by immediate past president, Hilbert Shields.

The club’s constitution mandates elections to be held yearly but elections, due since January has not yet been held.

Hussain said plans are in place for convening the Annual General Meeting (AGM) but the financial records are missing for the year 2017.

Shields was elected in March 2017 and Hussain succeeded him last December when the term ended.

Now, six months after the constitutionally set time for elections, Hussain told this publication, “we had some major challenges, the administration tried when they were defeated in the last AGM, walked off and didn’t hand over any records to us,” he declared.
