A grassroots effort to oust Ward 2 Glennville council member Marc Nobles is gaining strength. At least ten percent of the registered voters in Ward 2 have started the recall process by signing a recall application, the first requirement in the process.

There are 517 registered voters in Ward 2 (as of September 1, 2026), and, according to Zuber Malek, over 60 have signed an application for a recall petition, with this application to be submitted to City Hall on September 2, 2026. The required number of signatures is ten percent of the Ward 2 registered voters.

The next step is verification of the signatures on the recall application, and the Glennville City Clerk is provided five days to verify these signatures.

Then, after signature verification, the City Clerk will release the recall petition, and 30 days will be allowed to gather signatures of 30 percent of the registered voters so as to submit the recall petition.

An informational meeting was held on Monday, August 31, 2026, at 6 p.m., at the Glennville Garden Club Center. Ward 2 resident JoAnn Anderson served as facilitator for the meeting and began by showing the 14-minute video of Tuesday, April 28, 2026, in which Mayor Bernie Weaver and council members Marc Nobles, Tammy Waters, and Greg Janeczek met after the regular council meeting of that evening. This was against Georgia state laws in reference to the Open Meetings Act.

During this illegal meeting, Glennville council member Cynthia Miller, city employees, local business owner Zuber Malek, retiring County Attorney Hugh McCullough, and others were the brunt of atrocious disparaging remarks to the point of referring to Malek as a terrorist. (Malek, who has lived and owned businesses in Glennville for over 22 years, is owner of Glennville DQ and Reidsville DQ. He is also owner of Marco’s Pizza, Chelsea’s On the Go, and Glennville Anytime Fitness, which all contribute significantly to Glennville and county sales tax dollars.)

Anderson explained the recall application/petition process and was available to answer questions.

“This is not a race issue; it is a right and wrong issue,” she said, referring to these four city officials and their degrading conduct.

The comment in the video by Mayor Bernie Weaver, “Oh, but a tangled web we weave,” aptly sums up the web these four city officials have weaved for themselves, said one attending the August 31 informational meeting.

WJCL’s Dan Scott attended and filmed the meeting, which was aired at 11 p.m. this past Monday evening.

Council member Cynthia Miller was the only one of the city officials to attend the meeting, but city council member Greg Janeczek remained in his white Tacoma pickup observing those entering and leaving the meeting. However, when he was approached, he refused to roll down his window and sped away from the Glennville Garden Center parking lot.
