Janja Lula da Silva criticizes Bolsonaro family at Piauí rally

During a campaign rally in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil's First Lady Rosângela Lula da Silva, known as Janja, delivered a speech criticizing former President Jair Bolsonaro and his family.

Janja claimed that the Bolsonaro family lacks a national project for Brazil, asserting instead that their objectives are personal and aimed at protecting their own interests. She stated that if it depended on Bolsonaro, “the Northeasterners would be eating grass.”

The First Lady further characterized the Bolsonaro administration as a period of “barbarism,” citing issues such as hospital queues and the abandonment of vulnerable populations, including women and girls. She warned that a return of the Bolsonaro family to federal executive power would represent a regression for the country.
