Recent statements by Amirhossein Nazari, the representative of the people of Ramhormoz, claiming that "I don't pay bribes," have sparked a wave of criticism and local narratives. These criticisms indicate a significant gap between his claims and his actual performance.
Organized Bribery?
Critics believe that although Nazari has not directly stated to whom he does not pay bribes, field evidence suggests organized bribery to certain individuals. According to these narratives, it seems he has granted favors in support of Seyed Reza Mousavi, a coalition candidate, and as part of this deal, he dismissed the former mayor of Roodzard and appointed Mousavi in his place.
It is claimed that the presidency of the Cultural Heritage Organization has also been assigned to Seyed Reza Mousavi's brother, which has faced severe criticism. Additionally, the appointment of Ali Mambini, the nephew of Ghodrat Hajizadeh, as the head of the security department of Roodzard Municipality is seen as an example of bribery to political leaders.
Bribes to Political Leaders and Managerial Inefficiency
Names such as Mahdi Mirahmadi, Ali Hajizadeh, and Seyed Abedin Mousavi are included in the list of individuals who, according to critics, have benefited from this cycle of favoritism. These individuals have taken on key responsibilities such as the presidency of the Agricultural Department of Haftkel and the district administration.
Moreover, construction projects have also been assigned to the Narimani brothers, and billion-dollar loans, including one billion loans from the Agricultural Jihad, have been allocated to relatives and political leaders. Critics argue that Amirhossein Nazari has not only failed to assist job-seeking youth and farmers but has also concealed his managerial inefficiency behind the scenes of favoritism mechanisms.
