After being elected he told the Herald: “I feel native to Corby. Having lived here now for as long as I have, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. It’s an honour being elected mayor in a foreign land and it’s a huge honour being able to represent the community.
“It means a lot being elected as the first ever black mayor
in Corby. People are moving on and times are changing, which is great. It’s
exciting for the community. Everyone can feel included, this is not just for
me.”
Last year, Chikoto served as a deputy mayor after taking
over from Cllr Lawrence Ferguson, who was the mayor last year.
