The people of Denizli who participated in the holiday joy thanked Denizli Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Bülent Nuri Çavuşoğlu, who organized the night.
‘Greetings to a pair of blue eyes, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, greetings’ Denizli Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Bülent Nuri Çavuşoğlu also thanked the citizens who responded to their invitations and Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and his comrades who played a leading role in the existence of this meaningful day. Mayor Çavuşoğlu said, ‘This is such a beautiful love, enthusiasm, we are all Republic enthusiasts. On May 19th, someone with a tiny boat set sail with a huge heart. In his journey, without ever saying what will happen to me, he set out for Turkey so that the future generations will not be crushed under the boots of enemies, greeted to a pair of blue eyes, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and his comrades’.
Emphasizing that they set out to build a happy Denizli, Mayor Çavuşoğlu continued his speech as follows; ‘Friends, from now on, I ask something from you. From now on, we will struggle not for what I will become, but for what we will become. We will raise a generation that can say ‘what about my children’ when my children are beside me and my neighbor’s child. We will be people whose conscience is hurt if we are full while our neighbor is hungry, and we will not have a peaceful evening. We will create a Denizli where everyone’s face is smiling, where people are happy with their neighbors and friends’.
‘Long live the Republic!’ Mayor Çavuşoğlu said, ‘We will not be sick on May 19th. We will not have anything to do with those looking for report cards on August 30th. My friends, we will walk with those who have a huge love for the Republic in their hearts. When we say Republic, we will not be like those who say it with the tip of their tongue. We will be among those who say ‘Long live the Republic, Long live the Republic, Long live the Republic’ with a loud voice and a big heart. Trust us, believe in us, support us, my friends. We will turn Denizli into a city where people live in the most beautiful and rightful way. In this journey of ours, we will never exclude anyone. We will be with everyone. I love you all very much. Happy May 19th Commemoration of Atatürk, Youth and Sports Day to all of us’.
Mayor Çavuşoğlu then thanked the singer Göksel and presented a pedestal with the symbol of Denizli, a rooster figure, as a souvenir of the day.
