Deputy Andrés Mijes, accompanied by Alfonso Ramírez Cuéllar, submitted a request to the Superior Audit Office of the Federation to review the use of federal resources in works such as the Metro, the Interserrana Highway, and World Cup projects in Nuevo León.
Andrés Mijes, a deputy from Morena, has formally requested the Superior Audit Office of the Federation (ASF) to conduct a thorough audit of the federal resources allocated to key works in Nuevo León that remain unfinished. The request, submitted from Mexico City, includes the review of projects such as the Metro, the Interserrana Highway, hydraulic plans, and works linked to the World Cup.
Mijes was accompanied by deputy Alfonso Ramírez Cuéllar and other representatives from the Morena bench in the Congress of the Union. The request also includes the review of resource use in the administration of Escobedo, governed by the so-called 4T Norteña.
At a press conference, Mijes emphasised that transparency should not be selective, following the line set by President Claudia Sheinbaum. “Demanding accountability is neither persecution nor disrespect. Demanding accountability is a democratic requirement,” he stated.
The deputy lashed out at Governor Samuel García, whom he accused of governing with lies. “Lying from power is cowardice. Governing with lies is betrayal,” he said, in a tone that avoided falling into direct provocations. Mijes insisted that audits do not weaken honest governments; rather, they strengthen them.
“Today I come to have my management reviewed. I have clean hands, and that makes me proud as someone who aspires to defend the transformation and sovereignty throughout Nuevo León,” he declared. The request adds to another submitted a week ago to the Superior Audit Office of Nuevo León, with the same aim of clarifying the destination of public funds.
Mijes, who is emerging as an opposition figure to the state government, asserted that Nuevo León has had enough of Samuel García's “party mode” and that it is time to demand clear accountability. The ASF, as the country's highest oversight body, will have to determine whether to initiate the requested audits.
This action puts the spotlight on the management of federal resources in a key state for the Mexican economy. For the citizens of Nuevo León, the audit could shed light on the delays in works that affect mobility, water supply, and preparations for the 2026 World Cup. If the ASF accepts the request, the results could have political and legal implications for Samuel García's government.
