The candidate of Nueva Canarias - Canarista Bloc Javi Romero, assures that this is an example of the partisan and dictatorial use of public media by Mayor Onalia Bueno

 

 The Provincial Electoral Board of Las Palmas has sent to Nueva Canarias - Canarista Block the statement it sent on May 8, which determines the times and spaces that correspond to each of the political formations that attend. the local elections in May, for the electoral district of Mogán.

 

In response to repeated requests from this party, the JEP has communicated this agreement, which was sent by email to the Mogán public radio station "Radio Mogan" on May 8. Furthermore, the JEP has communicated to the City Council itself the NC-BC request and the agreement adopted on May 8.

 

Javi Romero wants to highlight that the Mogán City Council is grossly failing to comply with what was agreed by the JEP, since May 8, affecting and harming political pluralism, enshrined in our constitution, and therefore the electoral process in the that we find, both in that it is limiting the political participation of the different parties that attend Mogán.

 

This is their “modus operandi”. Firstly, they denounce that the other parties occupy more space than they should in the few places that the City Council itself has made available, and on the other hand, they prevent the use of public media such as the Municipal Radio of Mogán, for the distribution of electoral spaces.

 

For 9 days they have received the communication from the JEP, and they have not communicated anything, "it is very clear that Onalia Bueno wants the other parties not to have a voice, and for the citizens not to know our proposals," says Javi Romero.

 

"This is what Onalia Bueno was looking for, with the privatization of Radio Television of Mogán, to have absolute control, establish censorship and avoid political pluralism of the different political forces of Mogán," says the candidate for mayor of Nueva Canarias. - Canarian Block. That he reminds the government group that although the management of the service is privatized, the public administration is the owner of the licenses and the authorship of its contents and actions, something that should be guaranteed and ensure compliance.

 

"This attitude of the City Council and its political leaders is unacceptable, for them from the political group that I represent, we have demanded by registration from the Mogán City Council, that said agreement be complied with in a timely manner, and that NC-BC and the rest of political formations for the minutes lost and not used to disseminate our proposals and ideological positions, within the framework of the electoral process in which we are immersed," says Romero.

 

“It is a shame that bad practices have to be carried out in order to reach the government, and I fear that this will not be the last reprehensible action of the government group,” laments Javi Romero.
