According to Saadi, Valeixo informed him “that there would have been a request to change the superintendent” and that he agreed with the request, stating that the delegate already wanted to leave his position in Rio. Saadi says that the exchange was not due to “insufficiency” in his performance as head of the Superintendency and that the exact reasons for his departure were not presented.
