CHP President Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu criticized the Istanbul governorate by recalling that IMM President Ekrem İmamoğlu was not included in the coronavirus meetings at today’s group meeting. An explanation about Kılıçdaroğlu’s words was made from the Istanbul governorate. CHP responded to the governor’s statements.
“IT IS NOT COMPETENT WITH THE STATE ADMINISTRATION”
The written statement made by the CHP read:
“In Istanbul, where the Covid-19 epidemic has increased faster and more worryingly, at the meeting held on October 22, 2020 to evaluate the process; The fact that the mayor of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, Ekrem İmamoğlu, was not invited created a regrettable situation in terms of the epidemic and the management of the city. All segments of society criticized this image and expressed their reactions in various ways. The highest administrative authority of a province is the governor. Lack of knowledge and approval of the government about the participants of a meeting that concerns the entire city is not compatible with the state administration.
“THE GOVERNOR DOES NOT HAVE A LUXURY TO SAY ‘I DON’T HEAR-DON’T KNOW'”
The following words were included in the rest of the statement:
“Dear President, at the Group meeting; He criticized the mistake made and drew attention to the responsibility of the Istanbul governor for the meeting in question. It is clear that the declaration by Health Minister Fahrettin Koca that he will meet with the Mayor of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, Ekrem İmamoğlu, is an effort to correct this mistake. On an issue that concerns all of Istanbul, the largest city in our country, the highest elected executive, who has many responsibilities in the city administration, was not invited; The governor of a city cannot afford to say ‘I haven’t seen-heard-I don’t know.’
