Surprise claim about İmamoğlu from former minister: Who was appointed to head the presidential candidacy office?

Former Minister of State Mehmet Sevigen made a striking claim on the Taksim Meydanı program broadcast on TGRT Haber.

Sevigen stated, "Muharrem İnce has been brought in to head Ekrem İmamoğlu's presidential candidacy office."

As the detention of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor and presidential candidate Ekrem İmamoğlu continues within the scope of the corruption investigation launched against him, this development remains a key topic on the agenda.

Muharrem İnce, the founder and Chairman of the Homeland Party (Memleket Partisi), rejoined the CHP on June 24 last year at the invitation of CHP Chairman Özgür Özel.

İnce served as a CHP deputy for Yalova in parliament between 2002 and 2018 and held the position of CHP Group Deputy Chairman for two terms.
