Close to 200 concerned citizens, vendors and officials of City Hall took to the streets yesterday marching from City Hall to the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development offices in Kingston where they protested against the inability of the ministry to address the issues affecting the council as well as the Town Clerk (ag) Carol Sooba.
Yesterday, protesters chanted “Sooba must go; Sooba must go home” and sang hymns as they stood in front of the ministry with their placards that read “Sooba the bully must go”; “Vendors have bills to pay” and “Seven years at university and still not qualify.” The protesters also wore tags that read ‘peaceful picket’.
