In a live broadcast on his social network, President Jair Bolsonaro (non-party) apologized for making a prejudicial “joke” by drinking Guaraná Jesús, a famous pink soda in Maranhão.

“If someone was offended, I’m sorry, I played a game with the color of Jesus guarana, which is pink. And the game he was playing wasn’t for television, he was talking to a guy there. sections and I divulged it as if it offended the people of Maranhão, quite the opposite, with whom I played was a man from Maranhão, who participated in sport.

Even during the live show, the president again referred to the pink color of guarana on other occasions and said he saw “evil” in the criticism he received on social networks.

Visiting the northeastern state on Thursday, the president said she had become a ‘boiola’ after drinking the soda Jesus.

“Now I became a ‘boiola’. Just like Maranhão, is that it?” Said the president. “Pink guarana from Maranhão, whoever drinks this guarana here becomes Maranhão,” he corrected, showing the drink.

The Governor of Maranhão, Flavio Dino (PCdoB), criticized the president’s statement and promised to sue him. “Bolsonaro came to Maranhão with his usual lack of education and decorum. He made a funny joke with one of our traditional commercial brands: guarana Jesús. And the worst thing: he used public money for political propaganda. He will be prosecuted.”
