The leadership of the Clarendon Municipal Corporation could be switching hands from the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) to the Opposition People’s National Party (PNP), as Councillor for the May Pen North division Tanyalee Williams today announced that she has switched political allegiance.
Williams made the move further intensifying an already contentious power struggle over the leadership and control of the municipal body.
Her defection means the PNP now holds 12 seats to the JLP’s 10, breaking an 11–11 deadlock that had left the corporation evenly divided.
