With a press release with bright tones, the leaders of the Crotone Democratic Party point the finger at the President of the Calabria Region Roberto Occhiuto and the mayor of Crotone Vincenzo Voce, accusing them of putting personal ambitions and power games for the real needs of Calabrian citizenship.
The group leader Pd to the Crotone city and provincial council Andrea Devona, together with Annagiulia Caiazza, secretary of the Circolo Pd of Crotone, and Leo Barberio, provincial secretary, harshly attacks the Occhiuto decision to resign to recover, calling it “yet another, brilliant media operation”. According to the Democratic Party, the choice of the governor risks paralyzing the entire administrative machine of the region, with serious repercussions on key sectors such as health, public works, environment and staff stabilizations.
But it is above all to the mayor voice that the DEMs ask pressing questions. After years of “political piroettes” – according to what they declare in the press release – the first citizen, originally an expression of Civism and a time close to Carlo Tansi and the Treasury Calabria movement, would now find himself dealing with an uncertain alliance with Forza Italia and the Calabrian center -right. The reference is on the alleged axis with Occhiuto and the regional councilor Gianluca Ferrari, who should have projected his voice to the 2026 municipal elections with the support of the center -right.
The local Democratic Party now wonders what a position intends to take the mayor, after regional electoral dynamics have changed. “Will the Occhiuto-Ferrari-Voce axis be confirmed?”, The signatories are wondered. And again: “Among the Crotone forzists, nobody aspires in the place that Ferrari already seems to have mortgata?”
The press release also launches a direct accusation to the civic movement “grow”, linked to voice and its entourage, accused of navigating in political ambiguity in order to maintain the positions acquired. “To grow really – we read – are only the doubts and difficulties of the Calabrians.”
Finally, there is no lack of sarcastic tone in the post scriptum, in which the signatories say they expect an answer by the mayor voice “stuffed with offenses and dialing, but devoid of answers on the merits”.
The press release of the Democratic Party therefore lights the spotlight on a delicate political phase for Calabria, where fluid alliances and strategic repositioning, citizens continue to ask for concrete answers and transparency.
