Writer Recep Kapucu Criticizes Showy Aid Activities in Erzurum

Writer Recep Kapucu reacted to aid activities carried out in Erzurum being turned into shows in front of cameras, causing embarrassment to children.

The transformation of aid provided in Erzurum into social media showmanship drew the reaction of writer Recep Kapucu. Kapucu stated that during the distribution of aid packages prepared by non-governmental organizations, municipalities, and bureaucrats in the winter season, the emerging picture turned into a visual PR race that damages human dignity.

Stating that delegations visiting schools turned classrooms into studios, Kapucu emphasized that no one cares about the embarrassment on the faces of the children dressed in coats. Pointing out that these photos etched into internet memory affect the children's future, the writer recalled the virtuous stance of the late Palandöken District Governor Şenol Esmer in the past and asked media organizations not to be partners in this situation.
