Five opposition groups in Benevento have presented a 24-point dossier and a no-confidence motion calling for the end of the administration led by Mayor Clemente Mastella.
No-confidence motion presented at Palazzo Mosti
The groups — Pd, Città Aperta, Sinistra Italiana–Avs, Civici e Riformisti and Civico 22 — held a press conference at Palazzo Mosti to explain the reasons for the motion, according to reporting by NTR24.
The dossier sets out what the opposition describes as structural weaknesses and failures over more than two council terms.
What the dossier alleges
According to the opposition's account reported by NTR24, the dossier points to alleged administrative failures and delays affecting public works and PNRR projects, including interventions at the Federico Torre school and the Malies complex.
Other issues cited by the opposition include historic-centre decline, blue-parking management and bus-terminal management, school-canteen disruptions, school-building safety and accessibility, environmental emergencies and fiduciary appointments.
The opposition also referred to alleged judicial issues involving municipal officials. According to the opposition's account, four of the municipality's seven senior administrative figures are involved in the ongoing investigations in various capacities. Those allegations are presented as the opposition's claims; independent confirmation was not reported in the available source, and the full text of the 24-point dossier was not available.
Next step: council vote
The opposition is calling for support for the no-confidence motion and plans a public demonstration along Corso Garibaldi before the council meeting scheduled for Sunday evening.
The outcome of the motion and any subsequent political consequences have not been established, and the exact date and procedural details of the scheduled vote require confirmation from an official municipal or council source.
