Romeu Zema: Fabíola, I am very honored, flattered that my name is always being mentioned; I often see some political leader in the news bringing it up. But I will carry it through to the end, also because I am a different kind of candidate — I had never held any political office until 2018, when I was first elected.
Romeu Zema: And what I want is to put an end to this spree of the untouchables, to do what I did in Minas Gerais: fix what the PT ruined.
I took over a ruined state, a state with no credibility, and I handed, this past Sunday, to my successor a state that is standing on its feet.
Romeu Zema: A state that has even been growing above the Brazilian average, without corruption, without scandals.
Romeu Zema: Brazilians are tired; people today have no money, and the problem in Brazil is not that resources are lacking — the problem in Brazil today is that there are too many thieves and we need to change that.
