Veliaj admits it: I collaborated with Molla, Tushe and Qato, we achieved results

Erion Veliaj

The head of the Municipality of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, has reacted again to the arrests of his directors, after SPAK's investigations into the "5D" file.

Veliaj has admitted that he cooperated with the arrested directors, such as Red Molla, Mariglen Qato and Taulant Tusha. Even the latter boasted that they worked and had achievements while running various institutions.

Veliaj emphasized that in this communication he made a clarification about "hyenas that have not touched manual labor and grind their teeth with drool for the next prey".

The word of Erion Veliaj:

Yes! There is no question that I have worked and cooperated with these people and as far as I am concerned, I have evaluated their work based on the results, which speak for themselves in every corner of the city, for anyone who will refer to the real achievements in the sectors they have run, during the time they worked in the Municipality of Tirana. Mariglen Qato led the IMT from September 2018 to September 2023. Thanks to his work and that team, the New Boulevard, the liberation of the Ring at Astiri, the liberation of the Lake from occupation in its half, the opening of the grounds in Kombinat and 5 Maji for the new neighborhoods after the earthquake.

As we walk today on those boulevards, by the Lake, or along the Great Ring Road, we realize how useful work they were for the city, but also how many political opponents were opposed to IMT because they had linked their careers to the blocking of these construction sites and sabotage of Tirana.

Redi Molla led the UKT in the years 2016-2020, where he turned a bankrupt company into the only water supply company with a positive balance in the country, which today is financed directly by international development banks and which returned small Tirana from 7 hours of water per day, where corn was irrigated and neighborhoods dried, in a city 25 times larger in area, with 20 hours of water on average, and in most urban areas with 24 hours of water.

Taulant Tusha has managed public affairs in the Municipality of Tirana until last year. With extraordinary dedication, he has followed 24/7 projects that Tirana has been waiting for for a century - from Skënderbej Square, to the New Market, from Zogu I Boulevard, to the Small Ring, from the Castle of Tirana in the center, to that of Petrela in the suburbs, from the extension of Lana, to the River of Tirana, which overturned all units 4, 8, 9 and 11, to 101 renovated kindergartens and nurseries, and 40 new schools, from 'Kosova' and 'Samiu' , up to 'Partizani' and 'Çajupi', where every day 200 thousand children of the capital sit and grow in optimal conditions.

This was a brief overview of their work in the municipality and my work with them, before the hyenas, who have never touched manual labor, grind their drooling teeth on their next prey./ CN A
