Controversial Frank Folkerts Becomes New FVD Group Leader in Nieuwegein
Max Verstappen is stepping down as the Forum voor Democratie group leader in Nieuwegein because he is moving to IJsselstein, which disqualifies him from serving as a council member under municipal law. His colleague Frank Folkerts, who previously faced criticism for his past membership in the neo-Nazi Dutch People's Union, will take over the leadership role. Zoë Akpatiego, ranked fifth on the candidate list, will be installed as a new council member to replace Verstappen.
