Donald Gajraj

For alleged maladministration and poor accountability, Regional Executive Officer (REO) for Region Four, Donald Gajraj, yesterday had a No-Confidence Motion passed against him by APNU+AFC Councillors.

“The Regional Demo-cratic Council Demerara-Mahaica Region (Region #4) at its statutory meeting on Tuesday 28th February, 2023 passed a motion of No-Confidence in the Clerk of Council and Regional Executive Offi-cer, Mr. Donald Gajraj. Please find attached a copy of the resolution of the Council,” a letter from Regional Chairman, Daniel Seeram, addressed to Minister of Local Government Nigel Dharamlall and copied to President Irfaan Ali stated.

The Clerk of Council walked out of the meeting and was followed by PPP/C councillors. Gajraj has said that he doesn’t believe that the no-confidence motion was legal.
