«I said it the last time I came to Cagliari: I will return for the feast of Sant'Efisio and I'm back». Emanuele Filiberto is back in the city, a year after his last visit.
The representative of the House of Savoy, two days after Sa Die de sa Sardigna, participated in the mass of Saints Maurice and Lazarus in the castle. Then it will be the turn of a charity dinner and tomorrow, barring unforeseen circumstances, the party in honor of the warrior martyr should follow from Palazzo Bacaredda, the seat of the Municipality.
A return, that of Emanuele Filiberto, which is not greeted favorably by the civic mayor candidate Giuseppe Farris: «While the Truzzu Council was unable to ensure the usual collateral events for Sant'Efisio, we learn that Emanuele Filiberto di Savoia, already invited by 'now a former mayor, he landed in Cagliari", attacks the lawyer, "from the first rumors it seems that he was welcomed with bows similar to those that the people of Cagliari reserve for his ancestors, represented by that terrible painting by Marghinotti, still hanging in the room of the deputy mayor and which, in a month or so, will end up in the cellar."
Farris continues: «I don't know if the blue-blooded young man was moved by nostalgia and wants to see his old properties and the land that gave his family a kingdom. What is certain is that the heir of the dynasty that favored fascism returns to Palazzo Bacaredda for the second time, as a guest of honor for the most important celebration for Cagliari and for the whole of Sardinia."
