The Belladrum Community Centre building which Public Service Minister Sonia Parag was locked out of on Tuesday, was constructed from government funds following the March 2016 local government elections, according to Emile Wilson, Chairman of the Profit/Rising Sun NDC.
Speaking with Stabroek News yesterday via telephone, Wilson explained that the building was constructed at the request of residents following an outreach.
He stated that the area where the building is now located once housed a village market which was defunct for years. Being in no state to be renovated, the building was constructed under the supervision of the Community Development Council (CDC).
