Begoña Hernández Nóbrega leads the PSOE team that "represents the hope for change in Tinajo." This is the spirit that enveloped the presentation of the socialist candidacy for the Tinajo city council, held on the night of Friday, April 14, at the Mancha Blanca Socio-Cultural Center, which was packed.
“In Tinajo we need to change, we need to move forward, because we have accumulated several decades of backwardness and paralysis; we need to propose credible solutions to real problems, support our companies, open new businesses or recover life on the street”, said Begoña Hernández.
“This municipality needs to recover hope”
The PSOE candidate for mayor of Tinajo stressed: “This municipality needs to recover hope and regain confidence in its possibilities, so, if you want, if every neighbor wants, in less than two months the change and a new hope in Tinajo will begin”.
Begoña Hernández listed the problems of the municipality and proposed the solutions that the PSOE proposes to solve them. “The change in Tinajo also involves reviewing, once and for all and in a decisive manner, the General Plan of Ordination of Tinajo, an obsolete Plan that is not adapted to the current reality”, she said. “This will be the first task that I will carry out as mayor of this municipality”, guaranteed the head of the PSOE list for the city council.
On the other hand, she focused especially on youth, which she referred to as "our greatest treasure and our future." Begoña Hernández pledged to "allow our young people to dream and achieve the future they want, regardless of their economic condition; but we also think about their leisure needs by having a place to go on weekends, and that involves opening the doors of our public spaces."
“Tinajo is going to have a socialist mayor”
The socialist candidate for mayor of Tinajo made a call to mobilize: “We have an exciting challenge ahead of us in the coming years, but first we must decide whether we get on the bandwagon of progress or continue paralyzed, anchored in the past; therefore, we need you to transmit the hope for change in Tinajo, and have no doubt that that moment has already arrived: that moment is now”.
Loli Corujo, PSOE candidate for the presidency of the Cabildo of Lanzarote and head of the list for the Canary Islands Parliament for the island, also spoke at the event that brought together the socialist family of Tinajo. She recalled the motion of censure that unseated the socialist Marcos Hernández from the mayoralty of Tinajo, "and I say loud and clear that the time has come to turn that story around and that, 22 years later, Tinajo is going to have a socialist mayor."
Loli Corujo referred to the investments committed in the municipality by the Cabildo, the Government of the Canary Islands and the State thanks to her mediation. “Starting on May 28, one of my priority projects will be to place one of the access points to the Fire Mountains in Tinajo, and it will not be a simple parking lot, but an interpretation center where the visit will begin.”
Water supply and agricultural irrigation, two priorities
The current president of the Cabildo cited the projects that are already underway to solve the most urgent needs of drinking water supply in Tinajo: “We are already processing an improvement and reinforcement of the Montaña Mina to Tinajo line to cope with the increase in demand that will occur in the coming years with an investment of more than 5 million euros.”
Likewise, Loli Corujo named “the modernization of the irrigation systems that we will carry out with the desalination plant of La Santa with an investment of almost 14 million euros that the previous government had left sleeping in a drawer, but that we have managed to rescue, and whose execution will begin as soon as the nonsense of the emissary that they had planned is corrected.”
The last words of the PSOE candidate for the presidency of the Cabildo of Lanzarote were of encouragement: “If you want, if you mobilize, this municipality will be dyed socialist red on May 28 and we will celebrate it by having the first socialist mayor of Tinajo.
