Ghent The requirement of the former liberal aldermen and public WELFARE-presidents to Christophe Peeters still as vessels in Ghent will not get a hearing in the leadership of the party Open Vld Gent. The party has the appointment of Sami Souguir ratified by its voordrachtsakte. “Souguir will on 3 January to take an oath as ships,” confirms Sofie Bracke in The Standard.
“I understand that the appointment of Souguir was surprising, and a certain divisiveness caused, but it is time for the ranks to close. Sami Souguir will be on Thursday, January 3, to take an oath as ships”, so it sounds positive in Bracke.
Her explanation would be the chance at a rehabilitation of Christophe Peeters entirely ruled out. This is also apparent from the fact that Open Vld Gent her voordrachtsakte has already filed with the name of Sami Souguir, and not that of Christophe Peeters. That makes the appointment of Souguir immediately final. All rest, there is another scenario that proponents of Peeters suggest: a appointment of Souguir and then an immediate dismissal follows, so Peeters may take. But piste seems to be little realistic.
Sofie Bracke responds to the brouhaha that arose after Christophe Peeters sidelined was in favour of Sami Souguir. Monday, you could still be in our newspaper and read how six former aldermen and public WELFARE-chairmen of the Open Vld Gent their dissatisfaction expressed in a letter addressed to the national chairman Gwendolyn Rutten and future mayor Mathias De Clercq. The signatories: Sas van Rouveroij, Geert Versnick, Erwin Devriendt, Frank Wijnakker, Catharina Segers and Guy Serraes. No political lightweights.
Complaint
In the writing was an unmistakable message: Sami Souguir need to withdraw if ships to Christophe Peeters “still in glory”. Moreover, it will be an unnamed member of the board also submit a complaint to the statutory committee against the “false and deceptive procedure” which led to the designation of Souguir as ships. “If this goes through, consists of Open Vld no longer in Ghent,” said the former OCMW chairman Devriendt strong words for the camera from the VTM NEWS.
“everyone is free to go to the statutory commission, but we are sure that everything is correct is expired” said Bracke, who is so prepared showed to go in on the content of the letter. According to her, there is also no question of an irregular procedure. From her reaction it appears that the leadership of the party behind Souguir remains
Future mayor Mathias De Clercq, who are currently all acting exercises in the absence of Daniel Termont, tribute the past few days than again in silence. And also Sami Souguir themselves to refrain, as yet, of any comments.
