“The council of the Municipality of Naples, with a ‘simple’ resolution, has decided to complete the dismantling of democracy by further dismantling ‘L’acqua bene comune’, the public company that manages Naples’ water. This is a final blow to the entire world of associations and committees (as well as citizens) who have been fighting for public water for years. I believe that this world must come together to form a common front”: the regional councilor says so Maria Muscarà, after the protest initiative in which he participated this morning. “We met under Palazzo San Giacomo with the Water Committee regarding the modification of the Statute of AcquaBeneComune, a special company. Alberto Lucarelli and Father Alex Zanotelli are the representatives of the committees, the latter decided to chain himself to a tree under Palazzo San Giacomo. It involves a liquidator council and a liquidator mayor, of the city’s assets from the ‘Parcel for Naples’ with the 600 assets, to the projects on the sale of Naples East and Bagnoli. Let’s not forget that the last act of privatization was carried out in 2019 by the 5 Star Movement with the approval of the art. 24 of the Growth decree, in which Eipli transformed from a public body into a joint-stock company, despite the fact that one of the stars of the Movement was public water itself – continues Muscarà -. A system that is aimed at liquidating the assets of the city of Naples, preventing even water, the primary good par excellence and of which ours is the richest region in the South, from remaining public. Today in the square there were no ‘solos’ aspiring to the European seat who may have left some flyers elsewhere. Where is Roberto Fico? Who beat his chest for public water and who supported and supports this administration that he calls ‘laboratory’: now his people, that is, those who put inside that building, have betrayed the water and the citizens for whom first they tore their clothes”.
