“But why when someone tries to do something good in this region, many others – who enjoy only for the failure of Calabria – would like to stop it? Is what is happening today in Calabria”.
The president of the Calabria region, Roberto Occhiuto, in a video published on social media says so.
“I decided to take you here, to show you this construction site, the Catanzaro Metro Shipyard. But I could have brought you to many other places in Calabria – to Sibari, to the Sibaritide hospital; in Vibo, in the hospital of Vibo; in Palmi; in the airport construction sites; in those of the SS106 – to show you how many works are being made and how many works they would like to fear.
Who would like to stop them, the judiciary? No, I don’t have it with the judiciary. I do not change my mind: I have always said that in a complicated region like Calabria magistrates must do their job serenely. On the other hand, I clarified everything, I have nothing to fear from the judicial investigation.
Do you know who I have it with? I have it with all these second floor politicians, all these who have never created anything for Calabria in politics in many years. I have it with these haters, with these people angry with life, who support for the failure of Calabria, who are almost happy when we talk badly about Calabria.
I have it with these who use the judicial investigation as a club to weaken or politically kill the president of the region: it will not be so.
But I must also consider what is happening in my administration. Look, I think that in a civilized country nobody should resign because he receives a warranty notice, nobody.
But in my administration today is happening that everything is blocked: nobody assumes the responsibility of signing anything, everyone thinks that this experience is like the previous ones.
In the last 30 years in Calabria in the last year or in the last year and a half of the legislature the presidents were involved in a judicial investigation, then perhaps they were stored, everything in nothing ended, but they were politically beheaded, and the legislature stopped. Indeed, for a year there was only talk of this.
Calabria cannot allow it. Calabria has started a path that is finally making it a region that is no longer on its knees than the other regions of Italy.
And then I decided to resign myself, but I also decided to recover, I decided to tell the Calabrians: you are writing the future of Calabria, you are saying if Calabria must stop or if this work must continue.
In a few weeks, therefore, we will vote, and the Calabrians will decide the future of Calabria, not others “, concludes President Occhiuto.
