which had the senator (-PI) as its target, fell like a bomb in Piauí and made his pre-candidate for the state government cancel the event in which he would launch the vice-president on the ticket this Thursday (7).
Joel Rodrigues is state president of the PP in Piauí and wants to have former federal deputy José Maia Filho (Podemos), known as Mainha, as his vice-president.
Mainha placed himself as a pre-candidate for the state government and the union between the two is a way of trying to strengthen the opposition in a Lulist state.
The event was already scheduled on the agenda, but was canceled at the last minute.
Allies of the governor of Piauí, Rafael Fonteles (PT), took advantage of the fact that it directly affects Ciro Nogueira.
In the PP, the assessment is that it is now necessary to wait for the issue to cool down, therefore, no movement should be made in the next few days.
Publicly, Joel Rodrigues has said that he is in no rush and will define his vice-president close to the party conventions.
