Erbakan criticizes government: Karaköprü Municipality treated as 'stepchild'

Fatih Erbakan, leader of Yeniden Refah Party, sharply criticized the government at a rally held in Şanlıurfa, claiming that Karaköprü Municipality is being treated as a 'stepchild.' Erbakan emphasized that the municipality faces various obstacles and restrictions, while praising both the municipality and its mayor for continuing to deliver services despite all these adverse conditions. "I express my gratitude to our municipality, Karaköprü Municipality, and our valued mayor, who produce services without hiding behind excuses despite all obstacles and restrictions," Erbakan said. Yeniden Refah Party continues to share with the public its claims that the government does not treat opposition-controlled municipalities equally regarding resources and authority. Erbakan's statements have brought renewed attention to discussions about central pressure on local administrations.
