Addressing concerned residents of Ecoxim, Ferreira reassured them that he has no interest in real estate and is committed to defending the State’s sacred land resources.

You have nothing to fear. I am not a real estate agent or broker. I stand with you and will fight to save our land,” Ferreira declared, responding to appeals from locals seeking his help to preserve their hills and forests.
