Amasra Mayor Resigned!

Amasra Mayor Emin Timur Resigned From His Party!

Emin Timur, the mayor of CHP, who has done many services in Bartın / Amasra for 5 years, resigned.

President Emin Timur stated the following in his press release:

“After the elections, I came to a point where I struggled with the opposition of my party. After the second year of my mayorship, some people in the party took over the party management with the support of CHP Bartın Deputy Rıza Yalçınkaya and started to work against me. The political pressure that the ruling party put on Amasra Municipality and me and the district administration did not take my side during the policy phase, and I almost came to a point where I struggled with the opposition of my own party. District President Bora Işıkal and the people around him did not stand by the municipality in any of its actions, and did not even attend the openings. In the last local elections, the esteemed deputy and the district organization worked hard for me not to be a candidate. With their stories of intra-party democracy, they first put forward two candidates, and recently a third.

These were not enough, they started slander campaigns to the extent of defamation and insult. After my candidacy, they struggled with 'how can we lose the election' with the behaviors and attitudes they displayed during the election. When we won the election, they were upset and upset.”

– “I will continue to be independent”

Timur said that CHP Deputy Chairman Veli Ağbaba and Erzincan Deputy Muharrem Işık came to the district and listened to both him and the district organization in order to solve the problem and investigate its causes.

Timur said, “They did not go into the depths of the problems by claiming that their time was too short” and concluded his words as follows:

“It's as if they came to Amasra on vacation, not to solve problems. With these feelings and thoughts, I, who have grown up with the CHP culture from my ancestors and fathers, will no longer be able to struggle with these negativities and slanders. For this, I apologize to the people of Amasra, who trusted me and voted with a large majority. I am resigning from my party as I have decided to continue as an independent. I hope that the people of Amasra will understand me, and I will continue my work with the same enthusiasm and excitement.”
