Councillor Winston Maragh Statement on His Assault and Disruption Of ALGAJ Meeting

Release From ALGAJ President Councillor Winston Maragh - 20250201:

Councillor Winston Maragh

Friday, January 31, 2025, will be remembered in Jamaica as a sad day in the history of local government. The behaviour of some PNP councillors at the annual general meeting of the Association of Local Government Authorities (ALGAJ), was an embarrassment to this proud nation.

The use of physical confrontation to have one's own way at the meeting is reminiscent of the 1970s. A period which we would like to erase from memory. That cannot be erased and neither can the despicable behaviour of those PNP councillors.

I have noticed the characters who are now associating with the PNP, on stage and at public meetings, therefore we are not surprised at what occurred at the meeting.

JLP councillors have no intention to reflect that type of behaviour. We intend to conduct ourselves in such a way that the children and the young people will respect and emulate us.

The PNP has in recent times used the same old strategy - they tear down the leadership of our party and tell lies about our Leader Andrew Holness. We plan to follow our decent leader, and we will stay high even when they go low.

It should be noted that the leadership of the PNP nor the PNP councillors present at the meeting, showed any sign of remorse even though I was injured.

It is clear that it is power at all costs. The PNP did not have enough support to win the presidency for ALGAJ at the meeting. Like spoilt children, they ensured that the meeting was aborted.

We have faith in the Jamaican people, the vast majority of who are good people. It is said that Tom drunk but Tom no fool. The Jamaican people are no fools. God bless Jamaica and God bless our people.
