Mayor Ahmet Pekyatırcı also thanked AK Party Deputy Chairman Mustafa Elitaş, who attended the candidate introduction meeting, for his participation.

Mayoral candidates of 31 districts were introduced at the Candidate Promotion Meeting held at Selçuklu Congress Center.

“We will continue to set the bar high in Selçuklu”

Selçuklu Mayor Ahmet Pekyatırcı, who started his speech with the hope that the new period will be beneficial, said: “We will represent the Konya Model Municipality in the strongest way as a candidate of the People's Alliance and as the Mayor of the People's Alliance in Konya, as we have done so far. Hopefully, together, we will carry out exemplary work and exemplary municipal services from Konya not only to Turkey but also to the world. Of course, today is an important day for us. Our Metropolitan Mayor candidate in Konya was previously announced by our President. Our Mayor, Uğur Ibrahim Altay, was once again nominated by our President for Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor, expressing himself in the strongest way in Turkey and in the world, with his exemplary municipal activities so far. Today, AK Party and Nationalist Movement Party candidates in 31 districts of Konya were announced as People's Alliance candidates by our Deputy Chairman Mustafa Elitaş in Konya. I wish success to all our People's Alliance candidates, AK Party and Nationalist Movement Party mayoral candidates. Hopefully, on March 31, we will all join hands and heart to elect all our People's Alliance mayoral candidates as Mayors again with record votes in Konya. Our President has a request, a request from Konya; 'I expect a record from Konya,' he said. Hopefully, we will take our AK Party to the highest point together from Konya with record votes. 2019% in the 67 elections in Selçuklu. We were elected with 51 votes. We never lowered the bar in Selçuklu. We increased our voting rate in every election. In every election

We aimed higher. Of course, our population is constantly increasing, services are increasing, but expectations are also increasing, and we work and strive day and night with our organizations, our council members, and our neighborhood administrations. We strive to be with our citizens, hand in hand, to serve them wholeheartedly. I hope we will achieve the results of our efforts together in the elections of March 31, 2024, and I believe this wholeheartedly. Our latest vote rate is 67%. 51, but hopefully with a vote rate of over 70%, we want to give strong support and a strong result from our Seljuks to the AK Party. We have no obstacle to this. There is no reason for this not to happen. I hope we, together with our Seljuks, will achieve the best results in the March 31 elections with the highest vote rate. So far, we have accomplished very important work during the 5-year period.

“WE HAVE DREAMS FOR OUR SELJUK, FOR OUR KONYA”

Mayor Pekyatırcı said that he acted in unity and solidarity with all elements of Konya and said: “We provided our services by joining hands with our organization, our entire Metropolitan Municipality and our central district municipalities, in unity and solidarity, and in constant consultation with our citizens. We provided very important services. We have many projects we want to do in Selçuklu. We have dreams for our Seljuks and our Konya. I hope we will realize these dreams together. We will achieve this together with our organization, our council members, all our neighborhood administrations, and our headmen, and as I have just stated, we have no obstacles in front of us. I say there is nothing that we cannot achieve if we join hands and put our hearts into it. Once again, I would like to thank our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for their kindness, AK Party Deputy Chairman Mustafa Elitaş and all members of our organization who participated in our candidate introduction program. Our organization, with its entire structure, has always been on the field, not only during election periods, but throughout a period. I hope we will use the next period together in the best way possible, in the most efficient way, and together we will bring the best results to our Konya and Seljuks. Once again, I would like to thank our entire team. I already wish you happy March 31 victory. I hope that our new era will bring good things, not only in Konya, but throughout Turkey, especially in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, in all our cities, in all our metropolitan cities. I hope we will all celebrate the victory of the AK Party and the People's Alliance together.” said.
