The new governor of Sinaloa, Mario López Valdez (Malova), who to recall led a victorious broad coalition that included both the PAN and PRD to end a 8-decade PRI hegemony in Sinaloa, had earlier declared he would not fill the cabinet with cuotas y cuates, or according to party quotes and friendships, yet he is now accused of his allies, such as Lucas Lizárraga (PRD), Jorge Luis Sañudo (PT), Felipe Manzanarez (Convergencia) and Francisco Solano (PAN), of doing just so:
This Friday, his political allies questioned his appointment of Francisco and Rocío Labastida Gómez de la Torre, none other than the sons of his friend and also ally, former PRI governor and presidential candidate Francisco Labastida Ochoa, as coordinator of strategic projects and director of the center of science in Sinaloa, as well as that of Juan Ernesto Millán Pietch, also a son of an ex-governor, Juan Millán Lizárraga, to the plum position as secretary of tourism.
Perhaps it is more of a preventive measure from his coalition partners than anything else, as many positions remain to be fulfilled, but the criticism appears certainly to have put the new governor on the defensive.
