The handing over of the Staff of command to Andrés Manuel López Obrador on behalf of the indigenous communities representing the union of two opposing worlds, according to Jaime Martínez Veloz, former Commissioner for dialogue with indigenous people and founder of the Committee of Concord and Pacification (COCOPA).

The indigenous world and the western world merged in the inauguration address by AMLO in the Zócalo of Mexico City, where an indigenous ceremony was held.

Martinez Veloz, who has worked with indigenous community for decades, confessed that he had "goose bumps" when he witnessed the delivery of the staff in the Zócalo.

The staff represents more than 10 million people from different states and ethnic groups that make up the indigenous communities. It symbolizes the commitment of the new president to this segment of the population.

The curved staff was elaborated in Tlaxcala in cedar wood, decorated with several colored ribbons that represent the traditions and symbolism of the indigenous worldview. It also has the name of Andrés Manuel López Obrador engraved, as well as an indigenous national eagle.

In addition, Martínez Veloz explained that the indigenous representatives who delivered the staff are from a town called Ayutla de los Libres, in Guerrero, and that it has a system of autonomous government.

"Ayutla de los Libres has a community government council" Martinez Veloz revealed, "they managed to govern themselves autonomously, so their presence in the inauguration is also very special."

"The Western world and the indigenous world are two completely different ways of understanding life, so it was amazing how they melted into the ceremony."

"I got goose bumps," said who is rumored as a possible candidate for the governorship by Morena.
