Silence on the first day to lead the ASF
This Thursday, the Surveillance Commission opened the reception of candidates for the next head of the Superior Audit of the Federation. The position lasts eight years and is key to reviewing the government’s accounts. But on the first day, no one showed up.
The schedule was from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. in San Lázaro. The window to submit papers will be open until February 28. The last few days the hours are extended, as if they were waiting for a last-minute wake-up call.
“This process is crucial for the selection of the new head who will assume functions over a period of eight years,” says the official call.
Key, yes. But apparently not so attractive. The Commission promises transparency and fair evaluation. It sounds good on paper. The reality is that running the ASF means confronting the establishment with a limited budget and constant political pressure.
Who wants that job? It seems that for now, no one. Or at least, no one in a hurry. There is a full month left for brave men to appear… or designated ones.
Meanwhile, the chief auditor’s chair awaits. And the clock is ticking until the end of February.
