Cristina Villalba Was Confronted by Residents During an Event in Curuguaty
The ruling-party lawmaker received insults and reproaches outside a health unit in the 7 Montes community. According to ABC Color, residents questioned her appearance in an election context and denounced the area’s neglect.
Ruling-party lawmaker Cristina Villalba went through a tense moment during an event in the 7 Montes community, in the district of Curuguaty, when a group of residents confronted her shouting and accused her of being “a liar,” “shameless” and “a thief.”
According to ABC Color, the episode took place outside the Cruce 7 Montes Family Health Unit, under the XIV Sanitary Region. The legislator had arrived at the site to lead the delivery of an armchair and a dental unit.
According to that outlet, residents complained that political leaders only approach communities in the department of Canindeyú during election campaign periods and questioned the neglect they say the interior areas suffer.
Still according to ABC Color, Villalba responded that there are sectors seeking to generate conflicts precisely when works and improvements promoted by the National Government arrive. She then thanked them for the “gifts” and “benefits” brought to the region, amid the complaints.
The situation grew even more tense and the lawmaker eventually left while being sent off with new shouts of rejection from the residents.
