The center-right convention for Grazia Cosentino with president Schifani was opened by Fratelli d’Italia with Totò Scuvera who had at his side the designated deputy mayor Vincenzo Casciana and the designated councilor Carolina Varchi. Scuvera praised the party made up of a young list, a new leadership rooted in the party and the role of FdI for the unity of the coalition and for governing the city.
Nadia Gnoffo coordinator of Azzurro donna (Enzo Pepe absent) proudly presented the first female candidate from Gela, an expression of the territory and thanked the deputies for having accepted the request for a technician, something the city needs at the moment.
For the League (absent the regional big names) Ennio Di Pietro highlighted that you will find a municipality in difficulty and that having a competent technician with the right political coverage is the best you can have.
For the DC, Giuseppe Licata praised the unity of the coalition which is inclusive and has a ruling class that works without personalism and populism. There are not two centre-rights, the others are hodgepodges, improvised movements with sometimes folkloric tones.
For Italia Viva Giuseppe Ventura said that the others are trying to overthrow Grazia Cosentino in a badly defined way. They have been candidates for years but their party has not nominated them and they have nominated themselves anyway. Then he talked about the controversy over housewives and workers. They nominated everything. We speak not of the people but of citizens. The time of people’s leaders is over. Grazia Cosentino has connections with the parties and demands help from Rome and Palermo. She is the woman of action and not of personal revenge.
