CHP Crisis: Candidate Köksal Refuses to Govern with DEM Party Members
CHP Chairman Özgür Özel’s statement about not governing with DEM Party members sparks controversy
The CHP party in Afyonkarahisar is facing a crisis after CHP Chairman Özgür Özel’s statement that they will not govern with DEM Party members. This statement comes after Afyonkarahisar Mayor Candidate Burcu Köksal declared that if elected, the doors of the Afyonkarahisar Municipality will be open to all political parties except the DEM Party.
Özgür Özel addressed party members from the election bus in Uşak, where he reiterated Burcu Köksal’s statement about open doors in municipalities. However, Özel’s mention of a “little outrage” in Afyonkarahisar raised eyebrows among party members.
In response to Özel’s statement, Burcu Köksal posted a video on social media clarifying her position. She emphasized that she will not govern with DEM members and HÜDAPAR members, stating that the Afyonkarahisar Municipality will not be run by DEM Party members.
This statement has caused a stir within the party and has brought attention to the potential challenges of forming a coalition after the elections. The CHP party will need to address this issue and find a way to move forward in order to maintain unity and focus on their political goals.
