New Mayor of George-town, Alfred Mentore, yesterday pledged to “bury the hatchet” and be a people‘s mayor in the execution of his duties.
Mentore made the announcement yesterday during his inaugural address at the extraordinary statutory meeting called for the swearing in of councillors and to elect the Mayor and Deputy Mayor.
The elections process took a turn when former mayor, Pat Chase-Green, and Councillor Dion Younge of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic quickly moved to nominate their fellow party councillor, Odayson Audwin Ashby for mayorship.
