The Erzurum Metropolitan Municipality, under AKP Mayor Mehmet Sekmen, has made a notable tender.

This tender was awarded to a single firm with a total cost of 2.6 million TL. Only the Erzurum Environmental Cleaning Tree Landscaping and Energy Company was invited to the tender.

The fact that no other firm submitted a bid during the tender process raised public concerns. This situation has created questions about how the public tender system operates.

The municipality's purchase under Article 21/f has sparked debates in the public. This article was added for use in cases of natural disasters but is often claimed to be misused.

As a result, this tender and process are being closely monitored in Erzurum and across Turkey. The public's reaction calls for more transparency regarding such purchases.
