Place de la Mairie de Bagnolet
"I learned by the daily Le Parisien, dated Saturday, May 21, Laurent Jamet, 1st Deputy Mayor, would meet me if I stop the hunger strike. "
I also heard the call of all the unions and political friends and that of all other sensitivities who want me to stop the strike because they are worried about my health.
I will not repeat the reasons which prompted me to reach this extreme situation.
Therefore, I decided to suspend the hunger strike in response to the offer of dialogue from the municipal authority and I, for that, signed a release to the hospital to meet with Laurent Jamet through a constructive exchange based on mutual respect. "
" I had a strong violation of my rights and my dignity from the Directorate General Services and the Mayor. I can not accept this humiliation that shocked me deeply because it is a real disgrace to my political and my professional involvement.
I therefore ask the municipal authority:
- that I can regain my dignity by returning to the IT Department;
- a true inventory of the IT Directorate and the means to achieve the objectives;
- l stop the harassment and forced changes of territorial officers;
- stop killing off the agents;
- the establishment of a charter for a new management based on respect and professionalism.
