Noon January 6, 2017 – 13:52

Continues the debate between the mayor of Naples, Luigi de Magistris and the writer Roberto Saviano about the city and its change, for the first real, the other devoid of substance, though much heralded by the municipal administration. The clash, which goes on for weeks, has further inflamed after the raid of January 4, in the market area of the Maddalena, where you were wounded three senegalese and a 10 year old girl walking to the stalls with the dad: the clan would have shot against vendors who refused to pay the racket. The last act of the cold war between the mayor and the writer is a long post, written by the first citizen on Facebook. “Dear Saviano,” writes de Magistris, “the more you shoot in Naples and more grows your business. I can not believe that your success will grow with the shots of the camorra”. And again, “you have become a brand that pulls if you pull a certain narrative”. Hard also the replication o f the writer, arrived after a few hours always over the social: “it Will be stabbed by his lackeys”

The post of the mayor on Facebook

“do you Want to see, dear Saviano, that you’re building an empire on the skin of Naples and of the neapolitan?”, writes de Magistris, “you’re making wealth on our labours, our sufferings, our struggles. That’s just sad. I don’t want to believe it,” adds the mayor of Naples, by addressing the writer who had pointed out how, in his opinion, nothing was changing in the city, in the light of the last episodes of the chronicle

. “Saviano”, asks de Magistris, “is in bad faith? Does politics? It is a opposingI political? I don’t believe, I don’t want to believe, I do not see a plausible reason. And then, dear Saviano, do you want to see that you are nothing more than a person who became liable to assessment economic and business? Do you want to see that Saviano is, in the end, a great producer of income. If Naples and the neapolitans change the history, the pseudo-history of Saviano lose economic value”. Then other words and accusations, and finally, “Dear Saviano, don’t speculate on our skin. Soiled hands of fatigue true. Come here, mixed in with us.”

“The pugnaleranno his lackeys”

After a few hours comes the replication of the writer, via Facebook, and just as hard. “Mayor De Magistris, when the mystifications of his administration will be to comb, to stab her will be the many lackeys, more or less paid for, of which it surrounds to mystify the reality, the only way to avoid having to deal with it”. “Two shootings in the very center,” writes Saviano, “and a 10 year old girl injured in a place crowded of the city: but the mayor is annoyed by the fact, that he is not interested in reality, he is interested in the idea, the false idea of a city in revival: the problem are not the innocent victims of the fire of the camorra, the problem then is that Saviano will discuss this. The context in which they are born and grow up in the criminal organizations, the fact of the absence of rules and laxity, when he is mayor not only not changed, but took a turn more grotesque: now the camorra in the city is a minor a nd the discomfort has spread to the ribs and this makes weaker.” “But of all this – says Saviano – the mayor loves to talk and hates to do other: it seems that the city is reduced to the living room of his house, to dust, to hide under the sofa. Just think of the superficiality (not to mention the hassle) with which the mayor speaks of the suburbs drowned in the deterioration to the mayor sucks and Soccavo, it sucks Plain ashamed of the ward Conocal, cares of the ward of Trajan. The mayor is of the Vomero, he likes things orderly, clean. And it just so happens that on the management of real estate municipal, in the city’s suburbs controlled by the camorra, hardly spend a word, despite investigations by journalists serissime inchiodino the municipal administration, the responsibility enormous. And who knows that on this, as on other events, also the Prosecutor of the Republic, sooner or later, no action”.

Shooting at the Fork, four injured

“Saviano you eat an emotion”

The writer of “Gomorrah”, interviewed by the Republic on the shooting of the Fork, in the last few days he had said, “To Naples, talking about tourism and festivals in the square as a solution to all the ills of the city, with a mayor that is administered by six years, but seems to have always just settled. On Thursday, the mayor of Naples replied saying that “Saviano is not the holder of moral truth, nor that of the judiciary, nor of the historical one. To say that Naples is not going to change anything is simply false.” And then he had urged the writer to come to Naples: “stay with us, the living, the know, maybe you wear a wig, and you eat an emotion”.
