Eser Yenenler, who hosted the Youth Festival organized by the AK Party Youth Branches in Kocaeli, failed to please anyone. While Yenenler's 2019 post supporting Ekrem İmamoğlu resurfaced, he faced criticism from both AK Party members and the opposition. The famous figure continues to receive criticism from both sides.
The "Youth Festival" organized by the AK Party in Kocaeli became a topic of discussion. Particularly, the event being hosted by comedian and presenter Eser Yenenler drew reactions. Yenenler, who had openly expressed his support for the currently arrested Ekrem İmamoğlu during the 2019 local elections, faced criticism from both the AK Party and opposition circles.
İMAMOĞLU'S POST REMEMBERED
At the center of the debates was Yenenler's post dated May 7, 2019, which read "Everything will be very beautiful." This post was made after the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality mayoral election was annulled by the Supreme Election Council (YSK).
After the post resurfaced, some social media users tagged AK Party officials to express their disapproval of the event.
CRITICISM FROM BOTH SIDES
Criticism towards Eser Yenenler was not limited to AK Party members. Opposition users also criticized Yenenler for participating in an AK Party event today, despite having supported Ekrem İmamoğlu in the past.
In some posts, Yenenler's political stance was questioned, while other users said the famous figure "couldn't please anyone."
The debate, which quickly gained traction on social media, grew with comments from users of various viewpoints. Yenenler's participation in the event was among the most discussed topics on social media throughout the night.
