They are going for impeachment. The week started off hot for Mayor Jesús Estrada Ferreiro, as members of the Pueblos Unidos por Culiacán Association presented 10,000 citizen signatures to the Office of the Parties of the Local Congress to endorse the impeachment request against him for alleged acts of omission. that constitute serious violations of the Constitution. They even advanced that they still have another 4,000 signatures to deliver and that they presumably support the intention of the citizens to remove Estrada from the City Council. Among the violations attributed to him is not having respected the reform of the Drinking Water and Sewerage Law of the State of Sinaloa, which contemplates a 50 percent discount on water consumption for retirees, pensioners, the disabled and the elderly. But it is not only that, they also question him for not respecting the recommendations of the State Human Rights Commission and other violations to the detriment of retirees and pensioners, as well as the widows of fallen agents.
Parody in Congress. The impeachment request against Estrada Ferreiro was accompanied by a kind of parody with piñatas in the shape of a rat and with photographs of the mayor of Culiacán and other top-level officials, all sitting on a rocket, alluding to the demand for to run out of City Hall. This protest was the work of the members of Pueblos Unidos por Culiacán, led by José María Figueroa Gastélum, Roberto Blanco and Julio Heras, who from very early posted themselves at the entrance of the Casa del Pueblo. Among the faces that were glued to the piñatas was the secretary of the City Council, Othón Herrera y Cairo; Issel Soto, municipal treasurer; Yolanda Martínez, from the Human Resources Department; Alma Elenes, from Tourism; Leobardo Félix, Legal Director, and Sonia Quintero, Economic Development.
Deputies from Morena paint their line. The morenista legislators will not protect anyone and if someone violates the law and offends the people, action will be taken, as warned by the president of the Political Coordination Board, Feliciano Castro Meléndrez, in relation to the request for impeachment against Mayor Jesús Estrada Ferrero. The also coordinator of the morenista deputies affirms that the request will be given a treatment established in the laws and a decision will be made in accordance with the law… he even recalled that “the people are the only source of sovereignty, for that reason, more popularly said : the people contribute, the people remove. That’s the premise.” Castro Meléndrez indicated that, if the procedure meets the reasons and sufficient evidence, it will proceed in accordance with the Constitution, so the applicants must have the confidence that they will be attended to and once the documentation has been reviewed, they will take turns wherever they have to take turns. The deputy without a party, Adolfo Beltrán, joined the morenista, who recalled that it is not easy to establish a political trial, since it is necessary to gather all the elements established in the law, and if not, the issue could be declared inadmissible.
Gene minimizes departure of mayors. The resignations from the Sinaloense Party by the mayors Carla Úrsula Corrales, from Cosalá, and Claudia Valdez Aguilar, from Rosario, were somehow minimized by the PAS deputy and president of the Board of Directors in the Sinaloa Congress, Gene René Bojórquez Ruiz, who assures that the doors in the PAS are open and just as they can enter, they can also leave. And he took the opportunity to ensure that the participants work for unity and not for personal projects. He even highlighted the adherence of around 150 PAN members in the south of Sinaloa, as well as another 200 militants from different parties in the north of the entity, and that the hallmark that characterizes them is unity and carrying out the elections.
