Bolsonaro causes a stir when he visits a simple barber shop on the beach in AL

Last Friday (29), former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) caused an uproar among the residents of Porto de Pedras (AL) when he was caught in a modest barber shop. In videos shared on social media, both by him and his guide, Gilson Machado, former Minister of Tourism in his government, Bolsonaro is seen relaxedly sitting on a plastic chair, while Messias, a local barber, cuts his hair on a balcony , in front of a residence. The former president is in the region to celebrate the end of year festivities, staying at the Villas de Taturé guesthouse, owned by Machado, located in São Miguel dos Milagres (AL). Bolsonaro arrived in Alagoas on Tuesday (26) to spend a few days on the north coast of the state.

In one of the videos shared by Machado, the former minister jokes by suggesting that the establishment be renamed “Barbearia Patriota”. As his hair is cut, Bolsonaro receives enthusiastic praise from local residents, many of whom captured the moment on videos to share with family, as well as taking photos with the former president. In his own post, Bolsonaro stated that, if he wins in the 2023 Mega da Virada, he intends to share the prize, estimated at R$570 million, with the inhabitants of Porto de Pedras, being applauded afterwards. In November, he hit the jackpot in a Mega-Sena pool. During his visit to the municipality, he also visited the home of a 65-year-old supporter.
