The former president of Mais Querido did not stop exchanging 'barbs' with Cotta, this Monday
|
After former president Bandeira de Mello's version of the fire at Ninho, and a reply from Flamengo's Director of External Relations Cacau Cotta, the president of Mais Querido between 2013- 2018 counterattacked during an interview with the Coluna do Fla portal. The former representative claimed that an important part of the investigation process into the 2019 tragedy was withdrawn.
“With the revelation of the inappropriate connections between the delegate (Márcio Petra) and the director of Flamengo (Cotta), they are confirmed the rumors that have been circulating since 2019. And it is clear that for more than four years this connection was excluded from the process, damaging the defenses and the work of the MP (Public Ministry). But there is still time to investigate everything to get to the truth”, said Bandeira de Mello.
This Monday (27), the ‘Metropoles’ portal brought the version of Eduardo Bandeira de Mello’s defense about the fire at Ninho. In it, the current director of External Relations, Cacau Cotta, is cited as an important piece in the investigation process.
According to Bandeira's defense, delegate Márcio Petra had informally consulted with Cotta . Furthermore, in the former president's version, the current leader exempted the Landim management from blame for the fire, placing responsibility on the previous administration, in this case, Bandeira. Finally, during the hearing, the civil police officer admitted contact with the top hat, who was married to one of the police chief's cousins. Cotta spoke on Monday night (27).
“Regarding the allegations made by Mr. Eduardo Bandeira's defense, I would like to provide some clarifications. First of all, the deputy is not my relative, but my ex-wife's cousin. Secondly, Deputy Bandeira is being prosecuted by the Public Prosecutor's Office, which analyzed all the evidence and found that there were elements to make him a defendant in the criminal case”, began Cacau Cotta, in contact with the 'Metropoles' portal.
< “The Public Ministry's complaint was accepted by the judge and, to believe that a conversation with delegate Márcio Petra is the reason for the process, is to disqualify the entire institution of the Public Ministry, as well as the Judiciary. My conversation with the delegate was restricted to clarifying his doubts regarding the administrative structure of the club, which is public and appears in its statutes”, added Cotta.Thus, Bandeira de Mello filed a request opening an investigative procedure against Márcio Petra. After all, the police chief admitted, in testimony, that he had not recorded the conversation with Cotta about the fire. The former president also claims that the principle of impersonality was violated.

"The other day, at the Deliberative Council meeting, (Rodrigo) Tostes came close to me and he said that Flamengo will not be able to handle this. Look at the danger we are experiencing. All of this, have no doubt about what I am saying, a situation is being prepared that will make Flamengo unviable for the construction of the stadium and the transformation of the club into a club. SAF. That's what they want, but Maurício won't let that happen", added the former president.

Flamengo's election has already started and promises to be very competitive. On Monday night (19), Maurício Gomes de Mattos met with important groups and supporters at the Vamo restaurant, at the club's headquarters, in Gávea, at an event for his campaign for the presidency of Mengão. Among them are former presidents Márcio Braga and Eduardo Bandeira de Mello.
Bandeira and Márcio are important part of MGM's campaign and it is expected that their presence will increase the number of voters for the candidate. It is believed, in fact, that the higher-than-expected number of people at this Monday's event is already linked to EBM's official support, revealed a member of the campaign. And a large part of the candidate's opening speech was precisely praising the duo.
“Several authorities came to honor this moment. But I will present Eduardo Bandeira de Mello and Márcio Braga to refer you all. These two mean a lot in my life. I started at Flamengo at the hands of Márcio Braga, and it was President Bandeira who invited me to be general vice-president in his management. He set an example and showed the world what Flamengo is and where it can go. We are going to make Flamengo even better and even bigger”, said MGM, before adding:
“They were my inspiration outside the four lines. On the four lines there were Zico, Adílio, Andrade and so on. I always saw myself in a position to give back to Flamengo the much that Flamengo has always given me and continues to give. This love is the certainty of victory. My first feeling of victory in my life was with a Flamengo goal.”
MGM announced Wellington Silva as general vice-president of its ticket in the Flamengo election. Wellington was vice-president of communications during the flag administration period and has also served as press advisor for the Federal Supreme Court.
Another point that guides Maurício's campaign and was very present at the campaign event was the speech for professionalism in the club. Focusing on football, the candidate states that he intends to reduce the influence of amateur managers in the club's day-to-day activities and only wants professionals making decisions.
“Amateur managers will not enter the locker room, bus or play beach tennis with player. Methodology and collection, this is what we need in all competitions in the life of the club. All paths must lead to professionalism. “
Excited, Márcio Braga explains his support for MGMPresident who led the club the most times and among those who won the most important titles, Márcio Braga spoke right after Maurício Gomes. He treated this year's election as the “election of the century” in Flamengo due to the risks that the club runs due to the construction of its own stadium in the way proposed by the Landim management. He got emotional when he talked about not wanting to see Rubro-Negro “get lost”.
“This election is the election of the century. We can't lose at all! What is armed there is very bad. I'm 88 years old. I don't want to die watching Flamengo lose. We run this risk if we don't win the election. The times we are living in are very dangerous. We all want the land and the stadium, but not like this.”
It is worth noting that MGM commissioned an economic-financial feasibility study for the construction of a stadium on the Gasmetro site. He stated that the document shows that it is possible to carry out the work without harming the club's finances in other sectors and intends to follow it if elected.
Bandeira de Mello nudges Bap and Dunshee p>Hoping for more support for MGM, Bandeira de Mello also spoke and focused on the differences between Maurício Gomes de Mattos and the other two main candidates at the time: Rodrigo Dunshee and Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap). The former president criticized both, made reference to the attempt to remove him from the electoral race and cited “ethical liabilities” that need to be resolved.
“ Many people speculated that I could be a candidate for president of Flamengo. Many people insisted. But I always said one thing: I have already accomplished my mission. It's time to define someone else who can follow Flamengo's path, but with our principles and values. And of course I couldn't support either of these two candidates that are there, for several reasons.”
“They don't represent anything that Maurício said about professionalism. They are people who are there to persecute others and perhaps for purposes that it is better not to talk about because they are recording. I looked for a candidate who adhered to everything I think and want for Flamengo. Someone who had the courage to face challenges. Courage to pursue the liabilities we have, which are no longer financial, they are ethical. Let's clean up the liabilities that Flamengo has.” Maurício Gomes de Mattos' event was also attended by political groups that declared support: Grap (Grupo Raça Amor e Paixão), Frente Flamengo Maior, Flamengo Sem Fronteiras, Grupo Vitória and Fla Cones Group. In addition to many members of the former SoFla, which no longer exists as a group.
The election to define the next president of Flamengo is scheduled to take place on December 9th, a Monday, at 8am, at Gávea.
