“My messages are clear, councilors who do not work will not receive salaries. If they do not return to the benches, the citizens will return to the streets,” said today the mayor of Banja Luka Drasko Stanivukovic at the press conference, after the session of the city parliament was not held due to the blockade of the majority translated by SNSD party.
The rebalance of the budget was supposed to be discussed at the session. Stanivukovic said that calling on the streets is not a reflection of impotence, stating that the blockade is a reflection of impotence.
He said that the blockade of the assembly of the city costs 30 million. “What are they blocking against?” Against the school in Ada, against the bridge in Cesma, against free public transport, against the co-financing of private kindergartens, against the construction of a memorial… I don’t know what bothers them here. The first urban plan is at this session and they are against it “, said the mayor.
He pointed out that he would be in the Assembly tomorrow at nine o’clock, and that he invited the members of the majority, led by the SNSD, to return.
Otherwise, “he will take a clear position.” “I am not afraid of the people. Those who stole it have reason to fear it. The law on local self-government has been violated here, with several members “, said Stanivukovic, BNTV reports.
