The AKP-controlled Şahinbey Municipality in Gaziantep has been in the spotlight due to its recent tenders. They announced plans to spend millions on catalogs and brochures, which has drawn strong criticism from the opposition.

CHP Council Member Hasan Şencan criticized these expenditures as unjust in a time of poverty. He stated, "This money should have been spent on the needs of the people." Şencan claimed that these expenditures serve political purposes.

Emphasizing that these expenditures are spent on show rather than real needs, Şencan remarked that such waste is unacceptable. "Every waste is taken from the people's pockets," he stated.

Moreover, the sale of hundreds of plots by AKP municipalities without transparency has also been criticized. Şencan noted that this situation is an important opportunity to question how public resources are being used.

In conclusion, these expenditures and tenders in Gaziantep are being used for political purposes rather than the real needs of the people. The citizens of Şahinbey need to question this situation and demand accountability.
