The former mayor of Gavdos, Geli Kallinikou, wrote on her Facebook page:
«Am I in a state of OMERIA, shall I say? Surveillance, shall I say; by the police today due to the visit of the Prime Minister of the country to Gavdos.
What is it about my criminal record that you are concerned about that puts me on restriction or monitoring or surveillance? Did I embezzle public funds?;
Those who have been convicted of this offence are beside you right now, shaking your hand and possibly eating in their shop.
Is my life threatened in some way, as it has been in the past, or is your political facade threatened to be spoiled by opposition voices?;
Are you afraid to talk about the high school of Gavdos? I hope that the mother of the children whose children you are denying the right to basic education will be able to reach you.
Are you afraid to talk about medical coverage for the islanders?;
Are you afraid to talk about fire protection?;
Are you afraid to talk about hydrocarbon extraction in our region?;
Are you afraid to talk about the location of the outpost at the island's lighthouse?;
Are you afraid to talk about the desertification of the island in recent years, as it is impossible for the inhabitants to meet your economic demands?;
Are you afraid to talk about natura 2000, which is directly endangered by your policy and the potential development appetites of some of your coterie?;
Are you afraid to talk about the illegal Theodoricakos law?;
Are you afraid to talk about direct assignments?;
What is it that you fear from me, Mr Mitsotakis? What conversation do you want to avoid with the “anarchic unwashed” Syriza mayor, as your court used to call me?;
On the day of Epiphany black darkness covered democracy in Gavdos. I was kindly requested by a policeman to stay at home until the Prime Minister left the island.
Of course I refused and declared that I would not change my schedule, and as a result I am currently on a scheduled hike in the island's forest, on Democracy Avenue, after much discussion with the police.
Mr.Prime Minister, Madam Mayor, politicians and party leaders, is it easy to set up a shameless catwalk in winter on a remote island of 60-70 inhabitants, to carry two boats of people to show the success of the event.
What is the reason why you are indirectly depriving me of my constitutional right to free access to public space?;
I wonder how the little pier of Gavdos can stand so much shame on it and how many siroquids and storms are needed to purify it in the daytime, by your corruption.
