Vasco Mendonça, campaign director for João Noronha Lopes in the Benfica presidential elections, seemed to accuse João Diogo Manteigas, and his supporters, of having orchestrated some of the tense moments that were experienced at the General Assembly of the Club da Luz.

The accusation relates to the moment when several members of the Benfica left the Pavilion when Luís Filipe Vieira was about to speak to the red supporters. The situation generated a lot of tension at the General Assembly and has sparked a lot of conversation after the end of the GA.

Vasco Mendonça, responded to a post about the General Assembly, which contained praise for João Diogo Manteigas. The campaign director for João Noronha Lopes did not hold back, and responded to this post with information contradictory to what was initially presented.

"If it was organic (the protest against Luís Filipe Vieira), then explain to me: why was I approached by supporters of João Diogo Manteigas to explain why João Noronha Lopes and his supporters had not left the room?", wrote Vasco Mendonça, thus seeming to accuse the candidate of orchestrating this abandonment of the Pavilion.

In other responses he gave to Benfica fans who commented on the post, Vasco Mendonça dismissed any responsibility of João Noronha Lopes's campaign in relation to the protest against Luís Filipe Vieira, explaining that he was outside the Pavilion until the former President was preparing to speak, at which time he re-entered the General Assembly venue.
