Alessandra Todde tries to settle the controversy with her allies. But at the same time, she implicitly accuses them of arguing "about positions," which "don't interest her."
The president, on the sidelines of the Abbanoa shareholders' meeting that confirmed the public ownership of the company, spoke about the tensions of the last few days (especially with the Democratic Party), the changes in the government, and the confirmation of Fabio Albieri as head of Egas .
"We really need to think about the citizens. I'm staying away from discussions about positions; that's enough now ," he said. "We need to discuss healthcare, the things we need to do, including what's happening this weekend, for example at Brotzu Hospital, what the local health authority will do, and the recovery of the 30,000 people on the waiting list. This is what the citizens care about. Honestly, I'm not interested in positions ."
On the Egas case: "It's a choice of continuity. It's a unified list, a list of mayors who don't just represent political parties, but all the citizens of their territory , because this is the spirit of participation in Egas. And the assembly has expressed itself in this spirit."
The interim in healthcare : " It will last as long as necessary. I'm not passionate about it, nor do I feel like Napoleon. I'm doing it with great sacrifice, also knowing the kind of responsibility we have right now. However, I believe we need to make a difference and accelerate processes that, for many reasons, including objective difficulties, are slowing down."
The president ensures "close monitoring" of the construction of the San Gavino hospital and adherence to the timelines for the construction of community homes and hospitals to "avoid wasting" PNRR funds.
He calls it an " interim service to ferry this type of process through in an orderly fashion," including the appointment of the local health authority directors. "The appointment of the new directors will be crucial to ensuring that the local health authorities resume working in an orderly and correct manner, collaborating with each other without the many territorial jealousies."
On the Egas case, Todde also finds support from the center-right, including the Sardinia group leader at Centro 20Venti, Antonello Peru : " No agreement was reached between President Todde and the center-right on the election of the Egas president ," he wrote on social media. "The Democratic Party's controversy once again demonstrates a politics reduced to power-sharing and office-holding. Mayor Albieri was elected on merit, and those protesting today forget that he was elected using the same method in 2022, when he was still a Democratic Party leader, and the center-right, then in regional government, respected that choice without raising barricades."
