The CHP's official social media account responsible for media communications, 'CHP Communication', has been renamed to 'Özgür Özel Communication'. Cumhuriyet reported the development.
The account rename came immediately after a court issued an 'absolute nullity' ruling against the CHP — a decision that has thrown the legal legitimacy of the current party leadership into question. At a critical juncture in the proceedings, party headquarters was evacuated following police intervention. Taken together, the developments point to a deepening institutional crisis within the party.
The decision to replace an institutional handle with the name of Party Chairman Özgür Özel is a striking one. It lays bare the increasingly blurred line between the party as an institution and the chairman's personal political identity, and signals a fundamental shift in how the CHP manages its public communications.
The CHP leadership has yet to issue an official statement on the account name change.
