Melvinson Almánzar calls for state action against Santiago Matías

Journalist and political analyst Melvinson Almánzar has called for state intervention regarding the public conduct of businessman and communicator Santiago Matías, known as ‘Alofoke’. During an appearance on the program ‘Juego Político’, Almánzar argued that public figures with significant social influence must be held accountable for actions that impact family well-being and the economy.

Almánzar criticized Matías for behavior he described as confrontational and intimidating toward other communicators. He specifically referenced a purported incident in New York involving an alleged aggression against a media professional, suggesting that Matías uses personal fear and pressure to prevent others from exercising their right to opinion and public scrutiny.
