Office left behind by AKP mayor compared to that of former German Chancellor Merkel

Manisa Yunusemre Municipality's transition from the AKP to the CHP has sparked debates regarding the mayoral office.

The office left by former mayor Mehmet Çerçi of the AKP to the CHP's Musa Semih Balaban has become a trending topic on social media due to its decoration style, which has been likened to a palace.

Users compared the office to the office of former German Chancellor Merkel.

"WHY DO YOU WANT TO FILL EVERYWHERE WITH GOLD-LEAFED THINGS?"

Social media users' posts were as follows;

"This is the mayoral office of Yunusemre Municipality, which passed from the AKP to the CHP. A good psychiatrist needs to handle this situation now. They need to put conservative politicians on a psychiatrist's couch and ask, 'What did you experience in your past, why do you want to fill everywhere with gold-leafed things?'"

"A photo of the luxurious mayoral office of Manisa Yunusemre Municipality, which passed from the AKP to the CHP, has been shared. This luxury room was built with public taxes during the AKP era."

"FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM, THEY ARE ALL SULTANS. The mayoral office of the Yunusemre Municipality, which has a population of 270 thousand and passed from the AKP to the CHP."

"This is the Assembly of Wisdom. It is a mini-palace that former Yunusemre Mayor Mehmet Çerçi of the AKP had built for his own private meetings. Currently, there is more than 1 billion TL of debt that we have been able to identify at Yunusemre Municipality."
