The leader of the Fuerza del Pueblo party, Manuel Crespo, affirmed that the mayors who have been passing to the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM) and the Government will not repeat in those positions.
Indicating that these councilors are totally out of step with reality, he said that the worst case is that they are leaving for the ranks of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM) with a commitment, with a reservation made by President Luis Abinader. on their ballot to the detriment of the leaders who have thrown away the lining for the party, and who understand that they are the ones who have the right to occupy that seat by the PRM.
When dealing with the subject in the Contacto 360 program, he condemned that these purchases are being carried out with resources from the State and the national budget.
“This government is getting into debt, it has borrowed money to buy mayors among other things. They have borrowed more than 25 billion dollars in the more than two years that they have been in office, but they have not been able to justify a single work with that large and staggering sum of money, ”he said.
However, he said that on a daily basis it is seen how opposition mayors are being bought to be sworn into the PRM.
Despite this, Crespo also highlighted that the People’s Force, whose president is former president Leonel Fernández, weekly swears in PRM leaders who come to be sworn in in that party, whose action was defined by the politician as an amazing feat.

In that sense, he said that this has been a decision pushed because this government abandoned them.
“Luis Abinader has governed with the so-called popis, and although I do not like to use the term, it is the popular term with which they have labeled the current government administration and its members,” he said.
He said that the current president has shown that he only has a commitment to businessmen who may have sponsored his campaign, and although he does not disapprove of being taken into consideration, he said that public office is for politicians and businessmen are for the businesses that occur naturally in all state institutions.
