The Independent Turkey Party (BTP), which entered the local elections with assertive and surprising names in many cities and districts of Turkey, also nominated a young name in Istanbul.
BTP Chairman Hüseyin Baş announced the name of the Istanbul candidate to the public for the first time: 'Yes. Now that everyone has announced the IMM candidates who are similar to each other, it is time to announce what is different... Istanbul's digital age is beginning.' He explained with his expressions. Sharing on his social media account, Baş said, “I would like to introduce you our Istanbul candidate. Cihan is 25 years old, a wonderful person, a technology guru, a digital identity, a young man with dreams. He set out for a completely different Istanbul. You will soon know him very well. "Cihan entrusts you, Istanbul," he said.
Cihan Erdoğanyılmaz, who made a statement after the announcement of his candidacy, said: "For years, we have witnessed with great sadness the achievements of our republic, which Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk entrusted to us, the youth, being disposed of one by one, and the country and the youth being plunged into great darkness and despair. The government and the opposition have forgotten their primary duty by falling into a fight for political gain. Our city and our country are too valuable to be left to those who made them like this. Considering the upcoming great Istanbul earthquake, the fact that we are about to miss the technological revolution and our economic independence being in danger, it is now a historical responsibility for us to fulfill our first duty, which is to preserve and defend Turkish independence and the Turkish Republic forever. "I would like to thank our chairman and the authorized bodies of our party for providing the opportunity by nominating me and many young people from all over our country in order to fulfill the requirements of this responsibility," he said.
