| Mayor and City Councilors (M&CC) were yesterday decked out in black and other somber colours, “mourning the appointment” of the “unqualified” Carol Sooba to the senior position of city Town Clerk. It is understood that Councilors had intended a walk out at yesterday’s proceedings, but the absence of the government-appointed Town Clerk only saw the meeting being suspended after the majority of City Councilors would have expressed their “disappointment, disgust and refusal” in working with Sooba.Deputy Mayor Patricia Chase-Green had explained to this publication that the mood at yesterday’s statutory meeting was “not conducive” to getting any work done. She said that councilors are upset over Sooba’s appointment and wanted to vent their frustration.Sooba’s appointment continues division at City Hall.As a result of the recent developments, it was related also that come Thursday,Cheap Jerseys, there will be an open meeting for concerned parties, including the general public to discuss the appointment of the Town Clerk and to discuss how to move forward with the matter.The Council has already registered their unacceptance of “three unqualified persons being handpicked by the Local Government Ministry to man three senior offices of the Council.” Also read to Councilors the three appointment letters ordering “under the power vested by the minister” to appoint the three unqualified persons.Chase-Green called on the Town Clerk to resign from her post given that she had not earned it. She charged that it would be the decent thing to do and requested that Sooba stop “insulting and bringing shame to women at such a level.”Chase-Green reiterated that Sooba’s appointment is sending the wrong message to young persons in pursuit of higher education. Chase-Green called on the Education Minister and the Ethnic Relations Commission to speak out against Sooba’s appointment. She called for the Education Minister to speak out against the non-acceptance of the qualified and recommended applicant for the Town Clerk post, while urging the ethnic relations commission to recognize the sidelining of the Afro-Guyanese applicant.Councilor Gregory Fraser said that the government has imposed a one-man Interim Management Committee (IMC) on the council. He charged that while all attempts to do away with the constitutionally recognized Council have failed, Sooba’s appointment is to ensure the government’s grasp on the council.“The Minister ought not to make the majority suffer by a bad decision to spare the feelings of an unqualified or incompetent individual,” said councilor Eon Andrews.Andrews said that Sooba’s appointment is a travesty of justice; and the government is not yet willing to give honour where it is due and based on “merit and merit alone.”Councilor Victor Sobers condemned his opposition Councilors for their approach towards Sooba’s appointment. He charged, “Common sense mek before book” and insisted that if the Minister felt she was fit for the post, then she must have been the second most suited person for the position.The Council has stated however, that it is not going to take Sooba’s appointment lying down since it will only mean continued division and prolong further, the suffering of the city.Today the 72-hour warning to the Local Government Minister to rescind Sooba’s appointment ends. |
