Mateus Simões: In my case, I think the reason is more obvious.
Mateus Simões: Ex-governor Zema and I found a State that was... It was absolutely devastated in 2019: salaries overdue, hospitals without medicine, works halted, the 13th salary hadn't been paid, municipalities in great difficulty for not receiving resources, and we spent seven and a half years to get to the point we are at today, with bills being paid, investments being resumed, significant improvements in education, security and health, and I don't want us to go back
to relive the nightmare that we experienced up until 2018.
Mateus Simões: So I would say that my presence in this year's electoral contest essentially aims to not throw away a job that cost the people of Minas and Minas Gerais a lot to achieve, to guarantee the legacy of what former governor Romeu Zema did and to be able to advance from there, because there is still much to do in Minas Gerais.
Desconhecido: Governor, in your assessment, what is the main problem the State still faces today and what will be the main focus of a possible second term of yours?
