He had emphasized the importance of spiritual shift. Also, he stated that there will be difficulties in the achievement of a material change, a spiritual one.

Comments from the Protesters About Obrador's Leadership

The group of women who participated in the protests had claimed that the current president of Mexico sees 'femicide' as a public relations and political issue rather than a serious phenomenon that has that power to take the lives of millions of Mexican women.

According to an activist named Maricrus Ocampo, she believes that the message that the current president of Mexico is giving out to the people is that he does not care. She emphasized that the issue is not only about women but about the Mexican problem.

After finding out about the significant number of deaths from murder, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador was noticed to have an indifferent attitude. He even blamed family breakdowns and 'neoliberal laws' from the past 30 years for the crimes.

Obrador was seated as the leader of Mexico with the promise to promote social change. However, protesters believed that the changes he promised were not turned into action.
