The Region 10 council has rejected an explanation from its Regional Executive Officer (REO), Dwight John that the collapse of a retaining wall at Silverttown was not the fault of the contractor.
John, had been written to by the Upper Demerara/Upper Berbice Council, and asked to explain how a retaining wall that was built to support a road upgrade in Silvertown, Linden, collapsed.
The REO was additionally asked to justify the continuous award of contracts to the same construction company.
