KM Mayor Talib Bensouda told reporters on Friday his council expects Sainabou Martin Sonko to respect their decision of suspending her.
Mrs Martin Sonko is sweating over her reputation after claims she swindled 12 million dalasis.
The KMC under Mayor Bensouda is now in a standoff with the local government ministry who said the embattled CEO should be allowed to return to work. The local government ministry on Thursday vowed to apply full force of the law if necessary.
But Mayor Bensouda however said on Friday: “We are aware that on the 3rd August the CEO attempted to enter the Council in the company of a TV crew. This is unfortunate.
“It is the duty of all staff in public sector employment to have due regard to the code of conduct of public officials and comport themselves with dignity and integrity accorded to their office. We expect that she will continue to respect Council resolutions and respect the terms of her leave until called upon.”
