According to Aleko Elisashvili, one of the leaders of Strong Georgia, Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze only remembered during the pre-election period that the exits of the “Marjanishvili” and “Akmeteli” metro stations need to be opened. As Elisashvili stated at a briefing, the Mayor of Tbilisi is mired in corruption and is stealing the people’s money.
“Kaladze knew very well that there is a second exit at the ‘Akmeteli Metro,’ which we even showed him a few days ago. When we showed that the second exit is unfinished, rotting, and that a huge amount of money is being spent just to remove water from there, the bribed Kaladze suddenly woke up a few days ago during a city government meeting and said he was announcing a tender. A man who has been the Mayor of Tbilisi for eight years, with just over a month left before the elections, is now saying he is announcing a tender to fix the second exits of Marjanishvili and Akmeteli Metro stations. Where was he until now? Didn’t he know? Did he think it was fine? Was he asleep? It’s clear what he was busy with – he had a big hand in stealing money. We will definitely fix the Marjanishvili exit. Once this exit is operational, the people will be relieved. We will also fix the Akmeteli Metro exit, and after October 4, once we get rid of these bribed officials, we will take care of this city and look after its residents,” Elisashvili said.
He added that Kakha Kaladze “does not care about the public interest and is mocking the people of Tbilisi during the pre-election period.”
“The Mayor of the city is the most bribed and useless mayor in the history of Tbilisi,” Elisashvili stated.
