In addition to Alberto Otárolathe president Dina Boluarte trust your adviser Grika Asayag (Four. Five). The weekly Hildebrandt en sus trece reported on the closeness of the businesswoman with the first president, whom she knew in her time as Minister of Development and Social Inclusion. As stated in the magazine, Asayag “has participated in the election of some ministers and carefully supervises the schedule of visits from the presidential office.” In more than one institutional photograph, he has been seen in the company of the head of state.

The adviser applied to Congress in 2011 with the Cambio Radical list, a party founded by José Barba Caballero. That time, he had just 22 votes in his favor. His work in the Palace is consigned as “service order modality” despite his close proximity to Boluarte Zegarra.
H13 was able to verify that this type of contract is because Asayag “does not meet the requirements for another type of contract. He does not have a university degree nor has he had previous experience in the public sector.”
The report also says that Asayag is a friend of the senior congressional officer, Jose Cevasco. His conversations —postulates the weekly— “revolve around parliamentary routines: motions of no confidence, voting on bills. And, when Asayag needs to contact a congressman, he makes things easy for him.”

Dispute with Otárola Peñaranda
Despite the fact that Asayag told H13 that he “still” considers Alberto Otárola a “friend”, the statements consulted for the report differ. “Two people have been key in the right-wing and the course of the heavy hand that Dina has taken: Otárola and Grika. Both, until a few weeks ago, worked together; now they hate each other,” a palace adviser told the media outlet run by Cesar Hildebrandt.
