Season Five of the radio serial drama “Merundoi” commenced on Monday and is expected to run until December 31.
The new season will include behaviour change messages on civic education as it seeks to improve public awareness and education and highlights key issues in local government towards building strong communities in regions across Guyana, a release said. Issues will include income generation, youth unemployment, suicide, social cohesion, garbage collection, public security, health care and environmental protection.
According to the synopsis, some villagers are not happy with the way the new council has been functioning, as many problems are still evident in the community and movement on addressing the issues seems unhurried. Lucille Carter is adamant that the council must be held accountable and not given the opportunity to relax.
