Munich / Nuremberg (dpa / lby) - The Nuremberg member of the state parliament Arif Tasdelen is to become general secretary in the event of an election of Ronja Endres and Florian von Brunn to the SPD dual leadership in Bavaria.
He wanted to bring the Bayern SPD forward together with the top duo, said Tasdelen.
«We are a great team.
We are united by the enthusiasm to fight for new political success and a trend reversal. "
Tasdelen would be the first general secretary of the regional association with migration experience due to his Turkish roots.
Von Brunn emphasized that Tasdelen was an “incredibly affectionate, sympathetic and social person” and could also “speak in clear political terms.
So Arif is a real General Secretary. "
Tasdelen was born in Turkey in 1974 and has lived in Germany since 1982.
He has been a member of the state parliament since 2004, before that he worked in the financial control of illegal work at the main customs office in Nuremberg.
He has been a member of the SPD since 1998, and was a city councilor in Nuremberg from 2005 to 2013.

The 46-year-old Tasdelen said he wanted to work to ensure that the Bavarian SPD becomes an advocate and caretaker for the people in the Free State: “We have to strengthen the party across the board.
I myself was the local association chairman for twelve years and I know that they need more support - especially in press and public relations. "
After Natascha Kohnen, the head of the SPD, has announced that there are two teams of applicants for the successor.
In addition to von Brunn and Enders, this is also the acting General Secretary Uli Grötsch, who wants to lead the regional association with the Upper Franconian Ramona Greiner as General Secretary.
The election of the new party leadership should take place in the spring, but due to the corona crisis, the party congress, which has been planned for March 20, will only take place on April 24 and only digitally.
