The conflict between Pablo Toviggino and Patricia Bullrich continues to escalate. After the Minister of Security announced her intention to apply the right of admission in stadiums, the treasurer of AFA received new public displays of support.
This Thursday, Central Córdoba de Santiago del Estero published a strong statement on its social media. "We express our full support for Mr. Pablo Toviggino in the face of the attacks and disqualifications suffered from representatives of the National Government," the institution stated.
Additionally, the club emphasized its defense of freedom of expression as "an essential value for democratic coexistence" and rejected "any attempt at censorship, intimidation, or persecution of those who exercise their right to express their opinions freely."
"Football must continue to be a space for unity, respect, and dialogue," the statement concluded, with a direct mention of the daily work of those who strive for the growth of the sport.

The Federal Council also replied
Meanwhile, the Federal Council of Argentine Football (CFFA), through a statement supported by its leaders, was even more forceful. "It is curious that those who claim to represent freedom act as ruling judges over the lives and thoughts of others," they questioned in reference to Bullrich.

In this context, the Council reiterated its "unconditional support" for Toviggino and defended neighborhood clubs as spaces for support and social development. "More united than ever in defense of the hundreds of thousands of families who find affection and respect in every small club in the Argentine Republic."
The Federal Council's final response had a direct and defiant tone toward the minister: "We say NO to abuse, NO to authoritarianism, NO to arrogance. Ms. Bullrich, not with the people."
