Mr. Ulisses Correia e Silva, for the time being President of the MPD!
Until today, he had put aside any reference to his person in this capacity!! And even meddling in the life of your party, of which I was a natural sympathizer since its inception until the Lord reached the leadership where he literally shaped in his image and personal intention a party machine that today has the power to drive away many militants and sympathizers from his bosom . It ceased to be a collegial structure in practice. Everything was dressed up in the peculiar way he uses of “without djobeh on the side” but with elephant ears to capture and listen obliquely to everything he is told!!

Until today, he had put aside any reference to his person in this capacity!! And even meddling in the life of your party, of which I was a natural sympathizer since its inception until the Lord reached the leadership where he literally shaped in his image and personal intention a party machine that today has the power to drive away many militants and sympathizers from his bosom .

Yesterday, perhaps because he hasn't had any hands on his hosts, one of his little boys with bad errands and behavior, Euclides da Silva, in an ignoble and sordid attack, directly insulted me and two other friends who, in the context of citizenship, we regularly comment on negative aspects of the current governance. Something natural within the framework of democracy that we all aspire to. A country without gags where the word is sacred.
Your party, which has already had golden moments in the political life of our country, cannot take advantage, because it is in power, to launch these ambitious young people caninely into crusades of insults and defamation against opponents or citizens who exercise their citizenship civicly and politely . There are ethical principles in political life that must be maintained and preserved. Unfortunately, we are witnessing a permanent degradation of these values that we have been cultivating.
The Lord will be confronted in a few days by a militant of the first hour, with proof and absolute dedication given to the MPD. A very unhappy cadre, with the deviations observed in the party's line of conduct, which was willing to challenge him for the disjointed and mediocre way in which the Lord has led the MPD and, as a direct consequence, the country. The pertinent and assertive challenge of Dr. Orlando Dias is a clear answer to the way in which the Lord has neglected the governance of Cape Verde!!
Fortunately, in the face of this widespread mediocrity, we have to recognize that Dr. Orlando Dias has every reason and legitimacy to believe that the Lord has already proven that he has not given evidence of the capacity, fairness and pragmatism to continue to lead your party.
In fact, in 7 years (84 long months) we have already seen that you will undoubtedly be the first Head of Government to hand over to your successor a country far worse than the one you received!!
In all aspects!!
In the health sectors, in education, in growing poverty and widespread hunger, never seen before, after Independence!!
Were it not only for these degrading social data, we still have a high unemployment rate, especially among young people!
A rampant, uncontrollable external debt that I consider unpayable, plus permanent intransparency and opacity in the management of public affairs.
There is a general feeling of insecurity, with crime on the rise, with citizens and their families confined to their homes after dark, especially in the capital. It endowed itself with a slow public administration populated by unprepared people!! Including his squad of Ministers and Secretaries of State, National Directors, General Directors, CEO, s of public companies and Institutes, advisors and others with management contracts, in which the great part know little or nothing and less do!! But all enjoying disproportionate protection and high remuneration! Almost all herded into their party hosts!! It has the transport sector in real chaos and transformed into a huge drain on resources!!
It managed, with one exception or another, to have the State business sector in a permanent deficit crisis!
We have reached the point where citizens no longer have confidence in the institutions of the Republic! Today it is easy to see the permanent degradation of ethical and moral principles in his management.
The Lord is the main culprit and promoter of this corrosion of values.
This is the country that Ulisses Correia e Silva will pass on to whoever replaces him. In seven years the Lord managed to transform a country of hope into a veritable patchwork quilt of holes where discouragement prevails, despair in thousands of families, extreme poverty on the rise and the desire to emigrate!
These are perverse and unworthy results for the Nation and contrary to everything it promised in 2016 and stubbornly continues to promise.
Due to the abusive use he made of his statute, on trips and campaign trips for the elections and the thousand promises he made to the Delegates, it is likely that he would emerge victorious from this unequal list of marked pieces.
But let me tell you it will be a pyrrhic victory!!
In this way your party and even the Lord will be greatly weakened!! I am convinced that, in the end, with some trace of modesty left over from the good education he had, he will lack the words to celebrate the legitimacy of his possible victory!
