Following allegations that İzmir Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Cemil Tugay would join the AKP, a video titled "İzmir" published by the AKP's social media account was brought to the agenda by a striking counter-post from the Saadet Party.
In the AKP's approximately 30-second video, images of flowers blooming among piles of trash were featured. The "İzmir March" was used as the background music in the video.
The Saadet Party responded with a video in which they re-edited the AKP's post. In the video published on the party's social media account, images of AKP figures previously associated with a funding scandal were shown following the images of trash piles from the AKP's video.
