In March 2021, Arminda Banda Oxa, the employee of the owner of INADI, Victoria Donda, She denounced that the Front of All official kept her in black for ten of the fourteen years she worked for her. Arminda admitted having sent a message to President Alberto Fernández, who supported the official.

Later, in July 2021, Judge Sebastián Casanello dismissed Donda, alleging that the alleged act “did not fit into a legal figure.”
TAKE CARE OF THE OLD
In January of this year Luana Volnovich and Martin Rodriguez, director and deputy director of PAMI respectively, were denounced for having been absent from their duties in the organization to go on vacation to the Caribbean, despite the fact that the President of the Nation had asked the officials to vacation within the country. When presidential spokeswoman Gabriela Cerrutti was asked about this fact, she declared that the issue “was finished” and that the government could not deal with it because there were “more important” issues.
All these are cases that attract attention since they show an unconcealed double discourse. Leaders who in their workplace claim to defend human rights and who in the private sphere beat an employee; officials who fight against discrimination and mistreat a domestic worker at work or those who should show signs of austerity in an impoverished country and do not. Perhaps it is an evil of public life not to be able to lead by example. All ethical faults that politics should not exhibit if it wants to maintain its credibility.
“A government that claims to have redistributionist pretensions generates poor people every day because its economic policy is inflationary. All this makes him lose credibility and undermines the image of the president”, says the political analyst Serge Berensztein.
The actions of some officials undoubtedly harm the general image of the Government. Especially since none of them stepped aside after they were exposed.
