MAYOR of Kingston Andrew Swaby has scoffed at the criticism of his leadership by Councillor Rohan Hall (Jamaica Labour Party, Red Hills Division).

What began as a smooth resumption of monthly meetings for the Kingston and St Andrew Municipal Corporation (KSAMC) after a brief summer break abruptly shifted during Swaby’s routine announcements.

He used that moment to address Hall’s letter to the Jamaica Observer which was published under the headline ‘Leadership is about results, not excuses’.
