Vicente Mompó

Vicente Mompó is the President of the Valencia Provincial Council and a member of the Partido Popular (PP). He is currently at the center of a political controversy surrounding the hiring of Vanesa Soler, the partner of Juanfran Pérez Llorca, the President of the Generalitat Valenciana. News articles indicate that the Valencia Provincial Council, presided over by Mompó, offered Soler a position as a director's secretary with a salary of €52,070 per year. The PSPV-PSOE (Socialist Party) has requested an investigation into the hiring, alleging potential favoritism and questioning whether the principles of legality, equality, and impartiality were followed. The opposition claims the hiring was justified by "urgent necessity." The controversy has led to calls for explanations and increased scrutiny of Mompó's leadership and the hiring practices within the Valencia Provincial Council.
