Bahçeli stated, "For mayors to abandon their duties and start positioning themselves as presidential candidates from today, boasting with the nonsense of polls, is primarily an act of ingratitude towards Istanbul and Ankara, and a cowardice on their part."

The President of İBB, Ekrem İmamoğlu, and the Mayor of Ankara, Mansur Yavaş, were criticized by MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli regarding the discussions about presidential candidacy. He stated, "For mayors to abandon their duties and aspire to the presidency from today, boasting with the nonsense of polls is, first and foremost, ingratitude to Istanbul and Ankara, and cowardice on their part."

BAHÇELİ'S BITTER WORDS TO İMAMOĞLU AND YAVAŞ

MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli targeted İBB President Ekrem İmamoğlu and Ankara Mayor Mansur Yavaş through the discussions about presidential candidacy. Criticizing the mayors for abandoning their jobs to aspire to candidacy, Bahçeli said it was ingratitude.

"THIS MIND IS NOT A NORMAL MIND"

Bahçeli used the following expressions: "The astronomical way in which CHP municipalities squander treasury resources on musical entertainment and concert festivals, while when it comes to our citizens, they only offer a bowl of soup and a plate of rice, is disgraceful. It is said that the payment to an artist is not 69 million lira but 45 million lira. This mind is not a normal mind."

"ASPIRING TO CANDIDACY FROM NOW IS INGRATITUDE TO ISTANBUL AND ANKARA"

No one will have the strength to lift this burden of justification. The encrypted apology of those writhing in the panic of criminals is greater than their offenses. Come on, you shameless ones, you newly rich, are you not afraid of God? For mayors to abandon their duties and aspire to the presidency from today, boasting with the nonsense of polls is, first and foremost, ingratitude to Istanbul and Ankara, and cowardice on their part."

Referring to Ziya Paşa's saying, "A person's mirror is their work, not their words; the rank of a person is visible in their work," Bahçeli stated, "Their words are empty, their politics are hollow, their bellies are full, and they have no works. Our nation cannot and should not be in need of these incompetent, ignorant, and ungrateful individuals."
