The main factor that led to the rupture was the support of the governor of Ceará for the candidacy of deputy Fernando Santana for the presidency of the Legislative Assembly
The senator, from the PSB of Ceará, announced the end of his political alliance with governor Elmano de Freitas, from the PT, a partnership that has lasted since 2006. The revelation occurred last Saturday (16), when Cid shared his dissatisfaction with allies , highlighting his exclusion from important decisions within the governing group and criticizing the PT’s centralizing tendency in the state. During a meeting, Cid mentioned that the decision was not yet final, but his allies interpreted the break as an action already completed.
The main factor that led to this rupture was Elmano’s support for the candidacy of deputy Fernando Santana, also from PT, for the presidency of the Legislative Assembly, while Cid was trying to promote one of his own allies for the position. Cid Gomes, who joined the PSB in February 2024, and his political group are not expected to align themselves with Elmano’s opposition, but intend to adopt an independent stance in the Assembly. This separation represents the end of a collaboration that began in 2006, when Cid was elected governor and appointed Camilo Santana to succeed him.
