Green seeking write-off of debt owed by wife’s business

The country needs more like this woman...here's what is generally called, "morals"

"The acting town clerk declined offering any exemption to the mayor’s wife, noting that she will have no part in any illegal activity. “The mayor being a former prime minister and mayor would know that there is no provision in law that would allow me to do so."

You think the PPP would be able to keep someone like Carol in their clique?

Nahhhh.

This old Macdonald should have been in jail a long time ago.

A section of Guyana like People like Green, Law Breaking, Fraud, theft are he things they live for. He screw GT so badly both physically and Financially but some LOVE him. Go Figure.

GT, the complete Guyana.  This old Macdonald been around forever and he is a friend of everyone.

It is people like Green that the AFC/PNC want to put in power to run Guyana. This is what I have been saying all along, replacing the PPP with the AFC/PNC is merely replacing one set of crooks with another. 

They are out of power and still want those perks from the PNC days. What will they do next if Green doesn't get his way? Burn!!!!

Freedom House sees Hammie's small-time shenanigans as a necessary political 'cost' - a nice distraction really - such that PPP tiefmen can go about doing big-time crime nationally with 'less' scrutiny

he is also a convenient destination to locate blame for PPP failure . . . THAT is why we have had no local gov't elections . . . Freedom House likes it that way

alyuh kneepad wearers will need another plan soon

Well said Redux!!

This is a like perpetuated by the AFC/PNC. In fact they are the ones that are responsible for the lack of local govt elections as they seek to plunder as much as they can from the residents of Georgetown with thief man Green at the helm.

Let us examine the reasons for my conclusion.

Following mo fiah slow fiah of 97, the Herdmanston Accord ensued. After which years later, Jagdeo and Hoyte agreed on a specific set of requirements before local elections can be held. Committees were set up comprising of  opposition members and the PPP. When meetings were held the opposition, comprising members of the pNC and defectors to the now AFC, did not show up, hence the reforms were stalled. This was a tactic of the joint opposition to stall the legislation and ensure an additional 2 decades of thieving by the Green and his cronies. As we see today the afc/pnc enjoys spoils of not paying taxes via Green's wife and multiple others yet to be named. The AFC/PNC now rule parliament for the past year +. They continue to employ stalling tactics to ensure legislation on the specifics requirements for local elections reform.

Hence, in some way, former President Dr Bharrat Jagdeo and Opposition Leader Mr. Desmond Hoyte had put together a task force to look at local government reform with the understanding that no local government election would be held without those reforms being completed.
He pointed out that that process had, however, ended in 2010, at the “scale weight”, and the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) had sought to push the reform agenda by taking it into Parliament.
He noted that all the bills had been laid in the Ninth Parliament; the opposition at that time had been the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) and the Alliance for Change (AFC); they were on the “Select Committee”, which had been very lethargic; and their attendance at committee meetings reflected a serious “lack of commitment” and “lack of dedication”.
The committee consequently moved at a “snail’s pace”, and the government, although having at that time a majority on the Select Committee, could not have pushed the process through.

Who brought Green back from the edge of political extinction?  Remember those pictures of Janet and Green embracing after her Presidential election victory.

Georgetown Mayor and high ranking PNC official Hamilton Green is waging a campaign to have the Acting  Town Clerk Carol Sooba removed from office. However a source at City Hall has revealed that the Mayor's current disposition towards Sooba stems from her exposure of his efforts to have $9M in rates and taxes owed by his wife written off by the cash strapped council.

In an interview with one of the local media houses Sooba said that the Jelante Pharmacy owned by Green’s wife never paid rates and taxes since it opened its doors many years ago. As such it now owes in excess of $9 million. She said she received a letter from Green in which he requested an exemption on behalf of his wife  who operates a clinic and pharmacy. A request which she denied noting that she will have no part in any illegal activity. “The mayor being a former prime minister and mayor would know that there is no provision in law that would allow me to do so. I advised him to contact the minister of local government on the matter” she said.
