Local Government Commission (LGC) Chairman Julius Faerber says that the body has the power to appoint whomever it pleases and has not done anything in contravention of Guyana’s constitution in relation to the appointment of a Linden Town Clerk.
Faerber’s comment came amid Linden Mayor Sharma Solomon’s concern over the Local Government Commission backpedalling on its unilateral appointment of Lennox Gasper as Town Clerk for the town.
The Commission’s Chairman said that nothing was done unilaterally.
“We have not done anything unilaterally, nothing we did violate the constitution, however, you will hear more from me on the subject Friday”, he told Stabroek News.
