The AKP-run Şahinbey Municipality in Gaziantep is drawing attention with its large expenditures. Hundreds of catalogs and brochures are being procured through tenders.

The municipality is spending millions of lira, allegedly using public funds for political propaganda rather than addressing the needs of the impoverished population.

CHP council member Hasan Şencan criticizes these expenditures as unjust and unresponsive to the real needs of the public. He states, "This money should have been used for the needs of the people."

The municipality is facing criticism for a lack of transparency and oversight. It is claimed that tenders are being conducted without a competitive environment, leading to waste of public resources.

This situation poses a significant threat to the future of the people of Gaziantep. The spending by Şahinbey Municipality raises questions about how public funds are being utilized.
