The president of UNITA, Adalberto Costa Júnior, promised in Benguela a fierce fight next year to make the municipal elections a reality and rejected the government’s proposals for a new administrative division of the country as being the product of “someone who doesn’t do well (from the head)”.
In Benguela, where he is on a private visit, Adalberto Costa Júnior guaranteed that local authorities are not a losing battle.
With the country just one law away from closing the municipal legislative package, the president of UNITA promises a broad national debate as a way of putting pressure on the ruling party.
“It seems like a losing battle but it is not, we are going to do everything to debate this reality across the country, in communities, institutions, academia”, he said.
“If that’s the case, we’re going to make the arguments of those who want to distance us from modernization and proximity to the citizen ever more fragile,” he added.
Asked regarding the proposed political and administrative division, the UNITA leader said that “it is better not to comment”.
“It seems like something that came out of the head of someone who doesn’t hit well, that can only be it”, he said.
As for the fight once morest corruption, now that the National Service for the Recovery of Assets assumes agreements to share misappropriated assets, as suggested, the politician reaffirms that his party’s strategy has just been reinforced.
“We continue to be more and more convinced of the choices we made, today our vision is applauded by everyone”, he said.
“Justice on order is not a solution for anyone, not least because the origin of the fortunes of the very rich, with very few exceptions, is the treasury” added Costa Júnior to whom “if we demand certain costs from some, we have to demand from others, the combat corruption is not being done”.
Speaking to VOA in November, the national director of the Asset Recovery Services of the Attorney General’s Office, Eduarda Rodrigues, defended asset sharing agreements, assuming that, otherwise, Angola might lose the trail of several billion dollars.
