The controversial petista deputy Gerardo Fernández Noroña once again lashed out against Margarita Zavala Gómez del Campo and the former president of Mexico, Felipe Calderón Hinojosa. This time, the activist of the Labour Party (PT) ironized the controversial refinery that would be built during the expanista's six-year term, as Zavala has more than criticized the Felipe Angeles International Airport (AIFA), which was inaugurated on March 21.
Through her official Twitter account, Fernández Noroña wrote the following message and took the opportunity to share the opinion column made by the now federal deputy of the Coalition Going for Mexico. “The fence, you mistitled your article. “The most expensive fence in the world”, right Tomandante Borlas alias Felipe Calderón?”
The former first lady of Mexico assured that the new airport in Santa Lucia is “the most expensive in the world” and reiterated that the project promoted by Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) has meant an “unprecedented economic disaster”, since to begin its construction, the mega-work promoted by the PRI company had to be canceled Enrique Pena Nieto.
He also indicated that the people of Mexico will have to pay for many years the debts incurred by the decision to build the AIFA at the Santa Lucia Military Base and described the social costs involved in the Tabasqueño project as regrettable, since the construction generated polarization and violated the human rights of employees of the Mexican army because they worked hard working days.
Faced with these and other comments against AMLO's project, Fernández Noroña recalled the controversial refinery that was supposed to be built during the six-year period in which National Action Party (PAN) standard-bearer Felipe Calderón Hinojosa ruled. However, the project that promised employees and business opportunities for residents did not take place, and instead, a fence was erected to enclose the 700 hectares that the refinery would occupy.
In addition to the deputy of the PT, another of the characters who spoke out against Calderón Hinojosa for the refinery that was left unfinished, is the journalist and producer Epigmenio Ibarra, who recently used his official Twitter account to assert that the former president allegedly spent 1.8 billion pesos on the construction of the fence, a project that aimed to be part of the events for the Bicentennial of Mexico's Independence.
“Felipe Calderón “spent” 1.8 billion pesos on the perimeter fence of the Tula Refinery that they would call “Bicentennial” and which was never built. Is that why the internet goes away when you touch the issues of corruption in your pocket? With AMLO we will have Dos Bocas,” wrote Ibarra, who highlighted another of the mega-projects promoted by the Mexican president.
However, prior to that message, Ibarra also questioned the expense of the work of La Estela de Luz, which he renamed the “stele of corruption” for the public treasury. However, the expanist was not the only one who received criticism, but also the former president Enrique Peña Nieto.
In this way, and following the criticism that AMLO has received for the construction of the new Santa Lucia airport, the producer pointed out that he himself documented “the amazement” and “pride” of some people at the country's new airport.
