In his post, Dodik criticized Stanivuković, stating that he wants to run in the upcoming general elections to, as he claims, "escape from the city where he ruined everything" and which, according to him, has a debt of 56 million KM. He added that Stanivuković is "an ordinary poser politician" and accused him of spreading falsehoods, disrespecting the law, and mismanaging the City Administration. "He is an ordinary idler, breaks the law, and is the leader of an organized gang in the form of the City Administration that violated laws regarding the spending of budget funds," Dodik stated. He also emphasized that Stanivuković is, as he claims, "corrupt," and raised questions about his personal finances and the purchase of properties in Banja Luka. Dodik conveyed that SNSD is "irreplaceable" and that there is no doubt within the party about their candidates, while assessing that Stanivuković has also failed in the political organization he comes from. Soon after, Draško Stanivuković responded, calling Dodik a "spent gambler" and accusing him of long-term rule without concrete results. "Mr. Dodik, feel free to count on Minić, but as of last night—the people no longer count on him," Stanivuković stated. He accused Dodik of avoiding answers to key questions for more than two decades, including the construction of a memorial complex in Donja Gradina, the management of public enterprises, and projects in the Republic of Srpska. "You have been in power for more than two decades and still have no answers to key questions," Stanivuković conveyed, adding that Dodik "eternally hides behind the people and political topics." At the end of his message, Stanivuković stated that his political victories will, as he says, be confirmed in the upcoming elections, with a message to Dodik: "Enjoy and goodbye."
