Mr Mamdani was due to take his oath of office at an abandoned subway stop after the clocks strike midnight yesterday, taking the helm of the United States’ largest city. He will be New York's first Muslim mayor.
His office said the understated venue for the oath-taking reflects his commitment to working people, after the 34-year-old Democrat campaigned on promises to address the soaring cost of living.
