Addressing Kurum, who was asking for her vote, the retired citizen said, "The pension is not enough, I have to work. I defended you for 20 years, but I no longer have the face to defend you. I am ashamed of people."

"I NO LONGER HAVE THE FACE TO DEFEND YOU"

In the footage that has been widely discussed on social media, the citizen, speaking about her struggle to make ends meet, addresses Murat Kurum and says, "The pension is not enough, I have to work. I defended you for 20 years, but I no longer have the face to defend you. I am ashamed of people." she stated.

Kurum replied, "You will continue to defend us again. We will win together."

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE DIALOGUE WITH THE DONER KEBAB MASTER?

The response given by a doner kebab master to AKP's Istanbul mayoral candidate Murat Kurum, who said during a shopkeeper visit, "Look at where we have brought the country in 22 years," had become a trending topic on social media.

To Kurum's words, "Look at where we have brought the country in 22 years," the doner master replied, "But look, I am a master craftsman, I cannot make ends meet with my salary. In 1996, I bought my father a house with one year's salary. Right now, I cannot even imagine going to my hometown for the holidays."
