Scandal in Congress: Advisor works at sports club during working hours.

In a new scandal shaking the Peruvian political sphere, the program "Panorama" has revealed that a worker in the office of the President of Congress, Eduardo Salhuana, also holds a position at the César Vallejo club in Trujillo, raising serious questions about the compatibility of both jobs. The information focuses on Jamill Marzuka Cortez, who serves as a Marketing and Communications advisor at the aforementioned sports institution, while simultaneously earning over S/7,000 monthly as an official in the President of Congress's office. The accusations arise in a context where transparency and ethics in public service are more necessary than ever. The complaint highlights that Marzuka was seen at an official event of the César Vallejo club, where the prominent footballer Paolo Guerrero was presented, precisely on a workday for Parliament. This coincidence of schedules has raised suspicions about the advisor's true dedication, as it appears he has not registered any deductions from his earnings despite the multiple activities he undertakes outside of his role in Congress. In light of these revelations, Salhuana has attempted to distance himself from the situation, expressing uncertainty about whether Marzuka actually works in his office, although he initially acknowledged him as a press advisor for the Alianza para el Progreso caucus. This lack of clarity has sparked criticism and questions about the management of the President of Congress and the oversight of his collaborators. In times when trust in institutions is key, such situations only contribute to eroding the credibility of political leaders. On the other hand, Marzuka has defended his employment situation, stating that his work at the César Vallejo club is performed externally and insists that his duties do not interfere with his responsibilities in Congress. He claims that he mainly conducts his advisory work on weekends, when the club has scheduled activities. However, Marzuka's explanations have not alleviated concerns, as public perception tends to view this duality as a possible conflict of interest. Experts in ethics and politics have pointed out that such situations are worrying, as they can open the door to practices of favoritism and corruption. The expansion of illegal mining, mentioned in the same context, suggests that the nexus between economic and political sectors may be stronger than previously thought, increasing the urgency for stricter regulation of public officials' activities. In the current environment, where politics and sports often intertwine, it is crucial for public officials to maintain a clear separation between their official responsibilities and their private activities. The lack of a clear boundary can not only lead to perceptions of irregularities but can also undermine the quality of service provided to citizens. The response of the President of Congress to the allegations will be crucial in determining the direction this case will take. A lack of action or an unconvincing defense could result in greater public and political pressure, forcing Salhuana to account for the management of his office. Meanwhile, citizens are closely watching how events unfold. The importance of ethics in public administration is a recurring theme in political debate, and cases like that of Marzuka and Salhuana only reignite the discussion about the need for profound reform in the way resources and responsibilities are managed in the political arena. In summary, the revelation that a Congressional advisor holds another job during his official working hours raises serious questions about ethics and responsibility in public service. Society expects clear answers and actions that ensure politics is conducted with transparency and commitment to the common good.
