And I add: “Unfortunately it is a decision that negatively affects the image of the corporation, but we hope that truth and reality prevail.”
The concilor Luis Fernando Quintero He went further and assured that this type of comment puts the security of corporations at risk. “There are many malicious hands that want to take us out of contention. It is serious that they accuse us without proof, it is a slander, a gossip. That is damaging our good name. They also endanger the councilors because under that lie they can be attacked”, Quintero argued.
“EVERYONE IS A GOSSIP”
For his part, the councilor Wilber Hinojosa pointed out that it is all gossip. “We are going to be ready, it is not a complaint, it is gossip.

Finally, the councilorCheche’ Orozco stated that “Election years are always like this.” “There are unfounded attacks in order to damage the good image of people. My work is there.”
