Criticized, Joaquina Almeida points the finger at the management of J\u00falio Ascens\u00e3o Silva and promises to present documents. The latter challenges it, in turn, to present the accounts of its management of more than 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>The days leading up to the VIII Congress of the National Union of Trade Unions of Cape Verde \u2013 Trade Union Central (UNTC-CS), were marked by an atmosphere of tension and discord between the secretary general, Joaquina Almeida, and the Platform Unite and Rescue UNTC-CS , as well as with a group of former leaders, who asked for the suspension of the event.<\/p>\n<p>At stake are, above all, the &#8220;unnecessary and artificial internal conflicts&#8221; created and the impediment of participation in the congress, due to allegedly delayed quota, of members of national bodies (National Council, Disciplinary Council and Audit Committee of Accounts), and of , at least 10 of the most representative unions in the country, affiliated to UNTC-CS.<\/p>\n<p>The document&#8217;s signatories, including J\u00falio Ascens\u00e3o Silva (former secretary-general), asked that the Congress be suspended, to be held later, respecting the UNTC-CS statutes.<\/p>\n<p>The same attempt was made by the Platform Unite and Rescue UNTC-CS, but without success, since an injunction to prevent the holding of the congress should have been filed before the National Council Meeting, which scheduled the event.<\/p>\n<p>It remains now, according to the platform&#8217;s president, Eliseu Tavares, to challenge the congress, after it has taken place. Joaquina Almeida accuses Ascens\u00e3o Silva<\/p>\n<p>Faced with the request for cancellation of the congress, made by former leaders, the Secretary General of UNTC-CS, Joaquina Almeida, in statements on Tuesday morning, to RCV, promised to bring documents on the management of the former leader of the Trade Union Central, J\u00falio Ascens\u00e3o Silva, during his 30 years at the helm of the organization.<\/p>\n<p>Joaquina Almeida urged Ascens\u00e3o Silva to \u201ckeep quiet\u201d, instead of, as he said, stirring up riots within the union central, adding that the former leader missed the opportunity to remain silent, while waiting for the court\u2019s verdict on his management. of over 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>The accusation also extended to alleged attempts to influence the current management for their own benefit, and to have enjoyed \u201cthe good and the best\u201d of the trade union central.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe who has the courage to give an account\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sought by A NA\u00c7\u00c3O, J\u00falio Ascens\u00e3o Silva proved to be \u201ccompletely calm\u201d in relation to his management at the head of the trade union central, and challenged the general secretary, Joaquina Almeida, to come forward to present the documents that he allegedly has in his disfavor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am calmly waiting for this interview of yours with the documents that you say you have and I only hope that it will be with an audit that you threatened me with, and that I have been waiting for more than five years\u201d, he said, adding that if the intention of the SG is to silence your voice, it can \u201cget your horse out of the rain\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This is because, as he said, the accounts of the mandates in which he was in charge of the UNTC-CS were all always presented and approved by the competent body, which is the National Council, in addition to having always had the favorable opinion of the Accounts Supervisory Board, all done with total transparency, \u201ccontrary to what is happening at the moment, in which she remained throughout her term without reporting a single account to the National Council\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It also challenges it to have the courage to publicly present what it inherited from its management, both in patrimonial and financial terms, and to be accountable to the National Council.
