Preparations around the headquarters building were completed before the program. Posters of Kılıçdaroğlu reading "Merit and Justice" and "Now is the time for purification" were hung on the building. The party bus was draped with the slogan "A spotless start for Turkey."
Reinstated Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu goes to CHP Headquarters after 2.5 years.
HEAVY PARTICIPATION FROM PARTY MEMBERS
Party members arriving at headquarters before the program chanted slogans such as "Kılıçdaroğlu is the hope of the people," "Right, law, justice," "We will win by resisting," and "This is just the beginning, continue the struggle."
Party members were seen carrying banners featuring Kılıçdaroğlu's photo from the Justice March. A stage, screen, and sound system were set up in the headquarters garden, and extensive security measures were taken in the area.
ÖZGÜR ÖZEL WILL ALSO BE AT THE PROVINCIAL HEADQUARTERS AT THE SAME TIME
CHP Group Chair Özgür Özel, on the other hand, will meet citizens at Ankara Güvenpark at the same hours. During the program to be held in front of the CHP Ankara Provincial Headquarters, Özel is expected to address citizens from a bus.
In the call made by the Provincial Headquarters, it was stated: "We invite all our people to expand the spirit of solidarity of the holiday and strengthen our unity and struggle."
POLICE TEAMS TOOK SECURITY MEASURES
Before Özgür Özel's holiday greeting in front of the Ankara Provincial Headquarters, police teams took security measures.
At the same hour when Özel will hold a rally for his holiday greeting program, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, appointed CHP General Chair by court decision, will also speak at his party's headquarters.
STATEMENT FROM CHP ON THE RALLY
Following allegations regarding Özgür Özel's program, a statement also came from CHP. The party administration announced that no application was made to the Ankara Governorship to ban the program at Güvenpark.
In the statement, it was stated that information was requested regarding the march calls of some district organizations, but there was no request or attempt to ban the rally.
It was noteworthy that Özgür Özel's wet photo, where he climbed onto a TOMA and raised his fist while walking to the Turkish Grand National Assembly in heavy rain after the CHP Headquarters was evacuated by police intervention, was draped on the bus.
EYES ON TWO PROGRAMS
Before two separate programs taking place at the same hours in Ankara, there is activity around both the CHP Headquarters and Güvenpark. The messages to be delivered at the events, which have attracted intense interest from party members and citizens, are eagerly awaited.
HE CAME TO CHP HEADQUARTERS IN KARATE UNIFORM
Former Karate National Team Coach and national referee Yaşar Buyurman came to CHP Headquarters in a karate uniform. Speaking to journalist Barış Yarkadaş, Buyurman said, "I was unfairly and unlawfully expelled from my party for criticizing Gökan Zeybek. I have trained thousands of athletes so far. I have served my country. I have been a CHP member for 44 years. I am with Mr. Kılıçdaroğlu for a new beginning."
