Rejecting the city’s plans to relocate them from the Stabroek Market square, dozens of vendors yesterday staged a protest outside of the Ministry of the Presidency in hopes of getting a stay.
Angry and frustrated, the vendors became even more furious when they were denied an engagement with President David Granger.
During a meeting on Thursday, with hundreds of vendors at City Hall, Town Clerk Royston King had announced that they would be temporarily removed for four months to a vacant lot, south of the Public Buildings, to facilitate resurfacing, cleaning and reorganising of the bus and car parks and vending spots.
