Panathinaikos Movement in Municipal Elections

The vote of Panathinaikos' fans and of course of the Athenians will be pursued by the "Panathinaikos Movement", which will take part in the Municipal Elections headed by Nikos Avramidis, who is the candidate for the position of the mayor.

Pan.Ki. wants Athenians vote to secure a position in the new city council and to be represented in it. The press message for the presentation of the movement states: "The Panathinaikos Movement is a social party that starts with Panathinaikos and is based in the ranks of its fans, but aims to embrace the whole society. We come from all social and ideological ranks, while our love for the huge and historic Athenian club called Panathinaikos connects us, as the substantial interest in the city you live.

Our first aim is to rescue the field of Leoforos Alexandras, which is threatened with extinction. And this is something that will not allow to happen. The field isn't just our natural house. It is a historical symbol and a real sporting beehive from which thousands of young Athenians have passed. We want a position in the Municipality of Athens, so we could turn it into a helper, for both Panathinaikos and the Athenians in general, because we will address the same social, economic and environmental problems that all of us face. Our program directly addresses all the issues that concern Athenians and will be announced soon along with all the candidates of our combination"

He studied at the Department of Physical Education in the University of Athens, but became a merchant.
