Paraíba political shifts: Romero Rodrigues backs Nabor Wanderley

Political dynamics in Paraíba are shifting as key leaders adjust their strategies for upcoming elections. Federal Deputy Romero Rodrigues has announced his support for Nabor Wanderley in the race for the Federal Senate. This decision, made in Campina Grande with the agreement of Cícero Lucena and Diogo Cunha Lima, establishes a cross-voting arrangement alongside Rodrigues' first vote for Veneziano Vital do Rêgo. This move impacts the competition for the state's second Senate seat, as Nabor Wanderley gains significant political ground in Campina Grande, a major electoral stronghold.

Separately, gubernatorial candidate Cícero Lucena has met with cultural sector activists in João Pessoa to reinforce his commitment to the industry's productive chain. Lucena's government plan includes strengthening the Artisan Hall through regional hubs, providing design and management training, and promoting traditional folk culture such as 'cordel' and 'quadrilhas juninas'. The meeting included representatives from the Liga das Quadrilhas Juninas de João Pessoa and the Associação Folia de Rua, both of whom credited Lucena's administration with the growth and national recognition of their respective cultural events.
