Bari Mayor honors football team and condemns councilor's remarks

Bari Mayor Vito Leccese hosted members of the Bari Sportiva football team at the City Hall to award them a plaque for their promotion to the Prima Categoria division. The team, led by technical director Giovanni Loseto, is preparing for their league debut this Sunday against Troia.

Separately, Mayor Leccese and local political leaders have condemned a social media post by City Councilor Giuseppe Carrieri. The post featured a photo of foreign women and children at a bus stop accompanied by negative comments regarding public transport projects. Local political representatives, including the PD and Progetto Bari, have criticized the remarks, with some calling for the councilor's resignation.
