COUNCILLOR Carlyle Goring has said he wants the public to know that he was out of the jurisdiction when the Farnum Playground was leased to Mae’s School, and hence, is in no way connected to the arrangement.
He sought to clarify that the owner of the school made a donation of $100,000 towards the upgrading of the ground.

Goring further told Guyana Chronicle on Saturday that businessman, Rudy Ramlingum of New Trends Auto and Transmission, spent a sum of money to upgrade the said ground, but that none of the money went to him (Goring). Instead, the businessman handled all financial matters with the contractor, Chung’s Global.

The councillor said he had noted in the press back in December 2017, under his accomplishments, that the $100,000 was received from Mae’s.
Goring said he has made it clear that he is not in support of any private individual controlling the playground to the exclusion of residents.
