Cold shower for Fatih Erbakan! The elected mayor, who won with 45% of the votes, resigned from the Welfare Party.

In the center of Aziziye district in Erzurum, Emrullah Akpunar, who was elected as the mayor from the Refah Party in the Local Administration General Elections on March 31, resigned from his party.

"I ESPECIALLY WANT IT TO BE KNOWN THAT..."

Akpunar, who announced his resignation decision on his social media account, said, "Dear fellow citizens; I would like to share with you the information that I have resigned from the Yeniden Refah Party, to which I am a member, as I see fit. There is one thing in particular that I want to be known, and that is that our motto is to serve our fellow citizens wherever we are and in whatever field we run. May God make it a means of good, inshaAllah," he said.
