Imelda Castro criticizes Enrique Inzunza: “He should have requested a leave of absence more than one hundred days ago.”

Imelda Castro, recently designated as the coordinator for the Defense of the Transformation and Sovereignty National in Sinaloa by the Morena party, has publicly criticized Enrique Inzunza for failing to request a leave of absence sooner. Castro stated that Inzunza should have stepped away from his duties more than one hundred days ago.

This appointment positions Castro as a primary candidate for the Morena party in the upcoming 2027 gubernatorial elections in Sinaloa. The critique highlights internal political friction regarding the timing of administrative leaves within the party's state leadership structure.
