Zoya Attard has become Malta’s youngest serving mayor after replacing Keith Azzopardi Tanti as Pieta Mayor following his election to parliament and appointment to Cabinet.

Attard, who works for MEP Cyrus Engerer, was elected to the council in 2019. 

Azzopardi Tanti had been serving as the Mayor of Pieta since 2013 and this year received the largest amount of first count votes in the 1st District. 

Thank you for your trust and I look forward to meeting you and working for our locality!” Attard wrote on social media.
