The mayor of Melito Porto Salvo has resigned. Weakened by the latest flurry of resignations by his councilors, put under pressure by those announced by the entire Council, yesterday Salvatore Orlando he broke the ice. And as he had anticipated, he drew the necessary conclusions. Which could not lead him anywhere else.

Or at least it would have had them until the municipal council that had been called for this morning, at the end of which four would have left, namely the deputy mayor Daniela Demetriusthe councilors Easter Pizzi And Mario Sevillethe councilor Silvio MalaspinaThe other two councilors, Manuela Minniti and Ffrancis romeo they had hinted that they would follow their colleagues, leaving their delegation and seat. The watershed of the council session had been set “out of a sense of responsibility”, given that the continuation of the budget balances had to be approved. But at this point, fulfilling the task or letting it pass without a fight would not have averted the prefect’s appointment as a commissioner.
Orlando decided to pull the plug immediately and addressed his letter of resignation to the city secretary, the president of the civic council and the councilors. Love his reflections.
