2024-02-10 10:10:55

Barranquilla begins to receive numerous national and foreign tourists who will enjoy the most important Carnival in the country this weekend, in the midst of the national and political situation that has generated crises and tensions these days. The Ernesto Cortizos airport receives passengers and on this occasion one of them did not go unnoticed from the moment he got on the plane until he arrived at “la arenasa”.

On an olive green T-shirt he was wearing, the subject, who never took off his mask, shows what is written on the garment. It was an offensive message against the president, Gustavo Petro, because on the front it could be read: Petro is worth a dick” and on the back “… and whoever believes him is worth a damn.”

“Well, it’s a lack of respect for people and they should have made him change his shirt to get on board,” said one user, while another pointed out that “He said little, but he said what it was, that’s it,” at the same time. Other users joined the comment thread: “Freedom of Expression”, “Where can I buy the shirt?”

The announcer’s statements, as expected, caused a tsunami of comments, as it generated a lot of rejection in thousands of Internet users due to the treatment that the communicator not only had with the head of state, but with his work team.

It is not the first time that the president has been referred to with words like this, since the discontent of Colombians has reached the soccer stadiums where on several occasions those attending the Colombian national team matches have chanted in unison: “Out with Petro ”.

In dialogue with SEMANA, ‘Paco’ Ramírez pointed out that he never stated that the president is a drug trafficker, because the video circulating on social networks does not include the previous part of the clip, where alias Popeye in an interview expressed strong qualifiers against the current president of the Colombians.

Verónica Alcocer arrived in Barranquilla to enjoy the Carnival

This weekend a new edition of the Barranquilla Carnival will be held, which will feature the participation of the First Lady of the Nation, Verónica Alcocer, as well as several Colombian artists, content creators, musicians and actors.

Through her personal X account (Twitter), the sincelejana confirmed that she is already in the capital of the Atlantic to enjoy this festivity. In addition, she shared a video dancing cumbia from the school that Shakira recently opened in the La Playa sector.

“Already in Barranquilla! A better welcome couldn’t be possible. I visited, together with Katya Nule, the spectacular social manager from Barranquilla, Shakira’s school and her Pies Descalzos foundation in La Playa. I was absolutely fascinated by the boys and girls at school. Pure talent,” said the wife of President Gustavo Petro.
