Gennaro D'Acunzi announced his resignation as mayor of Nocera Superiore on 12 October 2026, according to a report by Metropolis Web.
The report presents the decision as personal, linked to the difficulty of reconciling municipal duties with his profession. It states that D'Acunzi excluded external pressure as a reason for stepping down.
A mandate begun in 2024
D'Acunzi had served as mayor of Nocera Superiore since 2024. Nocera Superiore is a municipality in the province of Salerno, in Campania.
The full text of the resignation letter and an official municipal record confirming the current administrative position were not independently acquired for this article.
Earlier political context
On 28 August 2026, four members of the Fratelli d'Italia city directorate in Nocera Superiore announced their resignations and formally requested the commissariamento of the local party coordination.
That request concerned the internal coordination of the party at city level. The available research does not establish whether those August resignations were politically or causally connected to D'Acunzi's resignation in October.
