HONIARA City Councilors are expected to meet to decide the fate of Mayor Alfrence Fatai.
This came after the notice moved by member for Ngossi ward, Andrew Mua had been accepted by the council.
HCC Clerk, Charles Kelly confirmed on Wednesday that his office is only waiting for legal advice from Attorney General Chamber before deliberating on the motion.
“I expect to receive the advice from the AG Chambers this week.
“Once I receive the advice, we will sit down to discuss the motion,” he said.
The Solomon Star understands Mua lodged the 28-days’ notice on 21st June.
It should lapse Monday this week.
However, the council is seeking legal advice from the AG Chambers before discussing the motion.
The move to oust the Mayor stemmed from his leadership quality and values, which he failed to, maintain them in the public, since being elected in February 2015.
The 12 councilors, which include four old faces and eight newcomers, will vote during the motion of no confidence.
The ex-officio members, which include, Minister of Home Affairs, Manasseh Maelanga, Guadalcanal Premier, Anthony Veke, MP for East Honiara, Douglas Ete, MP for Central Honiara, Moffat Fugui and MP for West Honiara, Namson Tran.
The City Mayor earlier said it is their democratic right and accepted any moves to oust him from the top post.
Mr Fatai also has a case involving a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol.
