Duty Warning from President Erdoğan to 111th Term District Governor Candidates

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan attended the lot-drawing ceremony of a total of 96 district governor candidates, 16 of whom are women, who successfully completed their 42-month training process, reminding civil administration chiefs of the matters they should pay attention to in their duties.

Erdoğan stated that civil administration is a duty requiring dedication that cannot be fit into working hours, emphasizing that district governors must work on a 24-hour basis for the peace of citizens. Reminding that justice is the foundation of the state, the President asked for sensitivity to be shown particularly toward disabled citizens, relatives of martyrs, and veterans.

Issuing a warning regarding privacy in social media use, Erdoğan expressed that they will remove the issue of terrorism from the agenda with the target of a 'Terror-Free Turkey'. The ceremony, where Ünsal Emre Çiftçi, who finished the 111th Term District Governors Course in first place, also delivered a speech, concluded with the presentation of certificates to top candidates and the drawing of lots.
