Former mayor of a city in AC is dismissed from government secretary position

Former mayor Fernanda Hassem of Brasiléia has been dismissed from her position in the Acre state government.

Fernanda Hassem, the former mayor of Brasiléia in Acre, Brazil, has been officially dismissed from her position at the Secretaria de Estado de Governo (Segov). This decision, signed by Governor Gladson Camelí, was published in an extra edition of the State Official Journal. Hassem had been serving in a commissioned role since her appointment on March 14, 2025, under Decree No. 9.930-P, which placed her within the Group of Leadership, Assistance, and Advisory.

Hassem previously served as mayor, having first been elected in 2016 with a significant support of 6,819 votes, and she secured re-election in 2020 with over 7,000 votes. Her political career also includes a term as a city councilor. The dismissal from her government role raises questions about the current political dynamics within the state and may reflect ongoing shifts in leadership priorities under the current administration.

The implications of such a dismissal could be significant, as Hassem’s previous experience as mayor and councilor provided her with valuable insight into local governance and the needs of the community in Brasiléia. The move may prompt speculation about the future political landscape in Acre and how it might affect local governance and community engagement moving forward.
