Activist Evi Kokalari, one of Sali Berisha's most ardent supporters, has criticized Saturday's election for the new DP presidency, where she failed to win, and decided to retire from politics, heading back to the US.
In a post on social networks, she says that there has been manipulation of the free will for the election of the new DP Presidency, as it shows that the members of the National Council and the Youth Forum have lobbied for Belind Këlliç and Fatbardha Kadiu, the two most voted of the Presidency.
She further indicates that on the morning of May 22, a lobbying list was launched for the Chairman, leaving out MPs and people who have really been close to Sali Berisha since the first day. According to her, Belind Këlliçi and some of the most voted members of the DP Presidency are as blackmailing as they were with Lulzim Basha.
Kokalari warns that if Friday's votes are manipulated, when the vice presidents and secretariats will be elected, she is ready to speak with details, names, surnames and facts.
Full response:
I do not want to hear anymore that Belind Kelliçi and Fatbardha Kadiu have been the most voted in the Presidency. And Belind's hypocrisy when he says that he is affected by this kindness in voting, when he knows very well how he achieved it, does him good to use it for those around him and not for people with considerable IQ.
Shame on Belindi and his close friends who brought out members of the Council and members of the Youth Forum to lobby for him and Fatbardha Kadiu on 22 May.
It is not at all ethical for a Council member to lobby for his friends against other members.
This is called vote orientation and is a kind of manipulation of free will. This act should be punished by the Ethics Commission if the DP wants this one.
Shame on those who started a lobbying list for the Presidency on the morning of May 22, leaving out MPs and people who have really been close to Sali Berisha since day one and that the doctor had given him an equal chance for the Presidency, as and they deserved it.
You are as blackmailing as you were with Lulzim Basha, and of course you are the last to join Berisha's caravan.
Here, this is your character, integrity and hypocrisy.
I have been fighting for four weeks precisely to defend the vote of May 22 and June 3, and I will not let you vote for individuals like Oerd Bylykbashi, Agron Shehaj and some others if they run this Friday. They have shown their integrity and capacity and have so much dignity that they do not remain lobbying creatures.
I am ready to talk in detail if Friday's candidacies and votes are manipulated / oriented.
I will speak with names, surnames and facts !!
