ISTANBUL: Emir Ekşioğlu, known for his contributions to various international press organisations, has announced that he would be contesting for the seat of MP of the Kurdish -majority province of Hakkari from the Justice and Development Party.
The 23-year-old, who is from the same province as President Erdogan, will be the youngest MP in Turkish history if elected.
According to details, the step might be seen as a new Turkish strategy in a province which supports the Peoples’ Democratic Party – a political faction with close ties with the PKK and its leader Abdullah Öcalan.
Moreover, it was said that Ekşioğlu’s election would bring many initiatives in the field of technology and media.
Ekşioğlu is the owner of the Boxer magazine, while he also contributes to the Huffington Post.
