“It has been three weeks since I informed our mayor, Laurence Crucifix. I will be leaving from September to a university in Paris every weekend to follow a diploma in the treatment of vertigo, in connection with my job as a physio-osteopath and I will no longer be able to fully assume my function as alderman. This indeed leads to an additional diploma with exams, internships and a dissertation, following one year of training. I believe that it is more honest to withdraw from the political life of Libramont from the next municipal council in June”, this is how Bertrand Nique explains his decision to resign in a few weeks. Nothing to do with any disagreement within the Libramont majority. “No, and that is also why I specified that I will be at the disposal of the administration and my successor. I remain available for any information concerning the files in progress which I will continue to follow far”he adds.
Sophie Pierre will replace him at the municipal college
Normally, the alderman who had a score of 938 preference votes on the Chevi18 list, should have been replaced, in order of preference votes at the last municipal elections, by Councilor Paul Jérouville (1,376 preference votes at the head of the Chevi2018 list), but he had to give way to the current chairman of the board, Édouard de Fierlant Dormer (916 votes). However, for professional reasons, this one to decline in favor of the next on the list which is the municipal councilor Sophie Jacques (901 votes of preference in 2018).
Bertrand Nique will no longer be on the lists next year
This will make one more lady at the communal college.
Leaving room for his successor now isn’t a political miscalculation as Bertrand Nique won’t run once more in 2024: “I prefer to be clear and push my reasoning to the end. After my training, I don’t think I will be available to fully fulfill my task as an elected official. I will therefore not be on the municipal lists next year” , he assures.
It will therefore be necessary for the list to find an equally important voice carrier since Bertrand Nique capitalized more than 5% of the votes on his list.
Mathilde Otjacques will join the municipal council
Time also for Sophie Jacques to take her marks and gain visibility for the next election.
And if a lady enters college, it is another lady who enters the municipal council, since Mathilde Otjacques, who had the score of 618 votes in preference in 2018, will sit in place of Sophie Pierre.
