Following the court's "absolute nullity" decision, political activity in the CHP has accelerated. It was claimed that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who has returned to the position of General Chairperson, sent direct messages to deputies supporting Özgür Özel, stating, "Wait for me, do not go to any other party. We will come to power."
Developments following the 'absolute nullity' decision overturned by the judiciary in the Republican People's Party (CHP) continue to stir political circles in Ankara. A striking claim about the new network of contacts established by Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who returned to the CHP Chairmanship by court decision, with members of parliament has hit the agenda like a bombshell.
'WAIT FOR ME, WE WILL SOON DOMINATE THE PARTY'
According to a report by Nefes; Kılıçdaroğlu directly contacted several MPs known for their proximity to Özgür Özel in the current process. In the message allegedly conveyed to MPs supporting Özel, Kılıçdaroğlu was claimed to have used the following words:
'Wait for me, we will soon dominate the party. Do not go to another party under any circumstances, we will come to power.'
CRITICAL MEETING PLAN WITH 17 MPS WHO DID NOT ATTEND THE GROUP MEETING
Meanwhile, the search for balance within the party is not limited to this message. According to information obtained from CHP headquarters sources; Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is preparing to hold a special summit with 17 MPs who did not attend two consecutive group meetings without an excuse.
In an assessment made by sources regarding this move, it was noted that intra-party peace was targeted, with the following statements included:
'We respect these MPs greatly. We know they support peace rather than fueling conflict within the party. Mr. Kemal will personally meet with our MPs face to face and gather their ideas and suggestions.'
