Synopsis

“Murilo was a fundamentally political man.”

Lúcio Alcantara.

“He was a born politician. For him, the point of winning an election was to help the population.”

Francisco Carneiro da Rocha (Chico Branco).

“I was just under twenty years old and he, as a politician, people said that he helped the poor, the needy and he was known to a lot of people”.

José da Costa Sotero.

“My parents are from Serra da Meruoca and came here [...]. At that time, Murilo still had his office next to the Station. My father went there and started working for Mr Murilo, carrying those Quinado Imperial coffins”.

Francisca das Chagas de Oliveira (Chiquinha Fumaça).

Keeping the appropriate proportions and time, everyone was able to do something, however, I usually say that Chico Aguiar, Sérgio Aguiar, Cláudia, who was once a councilor and vice-mayor, Stélio Júnior, who was once a councilor, Murilo Filho who was once mayor , all of us Aguiar, descendants of Murilo Aguiar, have not yet managed to reach half the experience, vivacity and ability he had of being able to look at things and find his appropriate answers there.

Sérgio de Araújo Lima Aguiar.
