Sheinbaum and AMLO visit the Costa Chica of Guerrero

Cuajinicuilapa, Gro.A lesson on the ground. That was the day yesterday for the future president, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, as she toured Guerrero’s Costa Chica with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

It is a lesson, a privilege to walk with the President.he commented before thousands of people who gathered at the sports center in this municipality to participate in the last visit of the Tabasco native.

In four scenarios, the president showed his skills – honed in his countless trips to all corners of the country – to react to different eventualities: a road block, his vehicle stranded when he was surrounded by hundreds of supporters, a provocative dance and the fildeo to a large crowd to see the total female support for the person who will be the country’s first female president.

Closing their seventh joint tour, the head of the Executive and his virtual successor came here to inaugurate a section of the Las Cruces-Pinotepa Nacional highway, which connects Guerrero and Oaxaca, land of Afro-Mexicans.

At times, the ceremony turned into a farewell in which merriment and shouting were combined with tears and sad faces. In two months, López Obrador will retire.

We love you!was heard over and over again among the stalls. Farewell, President!was another cry that rose among the high decibels and even fanfares sounded.

Sheinbaum recalled that before becoming president, the Tabasco native traveled throughout the country, winning the hearts of the people. And today, as we walk with him, I can say that he has won the hearts of his people even more..

He listed, as in every act, his commitments as a ruler and signed: Today I come here with you to the Costa Chica, to commit myself to continue the legacy of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador..

Hardened by dirt roads –as he himself puts it–, López Obrador looked in his element. A permanent smile gave him away. And he used a metaphor to refer to the electoral victory. The bodywork is damaged, but about two months ago they put in a new engine..

He once again highlighted the qualities of his successor, making it clear that he does so because he believes in it.

It was a great victory. And I am happy because the person who will replace me, to whom I will hand over the presidential sash, is an exceptional woman. I tell you, I no longer need to flatter anyone.

The four lessons

Hours earlier, in the community of Marquelia, residents blocked the passage of the vehicle in which the President and Sheinbaum were traveling to demand the construction of a road connecting their communities.

The Tabasco native gave his commitment and that of the future president to build that road, and even recommended taking into account for the bidding the company that participated in the modernization of the road inaugurated yesterday, in recognition because they fulfilled.

The second lesson came when they reached the vicinity of the Cuajinicuilapa sports complex. Hundreds surrounded the truck, which was unable to move forward, amid the jubilation.

The president decided to get off and they both walked in the scorching heat for almost a kilometer, surrounded by supporters and responding to their displays of affection. The walk was exhausting.

Three. At the beginning of the event they were received by Angeli Juliet Ramírez, a young Afro-Mexican who presented The dance of the devils. This black woman with the harmonica wants to tell you something: these devils dance with all their hearts, but the minga comes to marry you and leave you the pension.the young woman warned.

Thus the dance began and when the devils were tapping their feet the minga appeared. She immediately approached the President, who was stunned not by the pension, but by the sensual swinging that the character was doing very close to him, emulating what is known today as perreoWith a skillful movement, and to the laughter of those present, the president managed to escape from the cutes of the minga.

The last of the lessons few saw coming. López Obrador was celebrating the three new social programs announced minutes before by the future president. But the reproach came when he alluded to the support that will be given to women aged 60 to 64. “I just notice that they applaud us, but women applaud Claudia more, I already realized, as they say in baseball, I was there fielding them nothing else”.
