“A bunch of lies” is how Jimmy James yesterday described his party’s claim that he was unwell and that he no longer wanted to take up his seat on the Region Eight council.
In an interview with Stabroek News by phone from Paramakatoi, James insisted that he will take up his seat on the Potaro-Siparuni council as that is what the people have voted for.
He also stated that since APNU+AFC had the largest block of votes in the region his vote shall be in their favour whenever the meeting of the Regional Democratic Council (RDC) is convened.
