From Berlin back home: Kai Dröse becomes mayor in Wackerow!

The former Berlin and now mayor of Wackerow, Kai Dröse, is a man with a moving past and big future plans. Born in Greifswald in 1971, Dröse returned to the region after 30 years to take care of his family and build a home on the old family of the family in Wackerow. His commitment to the CDU was no coincidence, but was more than just a political step - it was a decision to actively participate, in the sense: "complaining does nothing, you have to tackle yourself", as Dröse himself expressed. This is particularly noteworthy, since Dröse only won the mayoral election in Wackerow in June 2024 with a clear majority of 538 to 431 votes against the previous incumbent Torsten Maaß, as The Nordkurier reported.

Despite his victory, the way to the mayor's office was anything but easy. His dialing was doubted, there were conflicts regarding his residence and detectors who led to the municipal assembly called for a repetition of the election. After a judicial clarification, the administrative court decided in favor of Dröse and highlighted the election examination decision by the municipal council. This could be the reason that he now starts his official business and can devote himself to the challenges such as the improvement of bike paths and the census, as Dröse himself emphasized. "There are enough topics that we have to tackle," he said after the judgment, which underlines the drama of the Situation, how The Ostsee-Zeitung reported.

Dröse looks optimistic about the future

his commitment to Wackerow combines Kai Dröse both personal and political ambitions. The return to his homeland and the structure of a life where he grew up gives him new hope. After he was able to gain a professional foothold in Berlin and worked for a few years in a leadership position at Samsung, he now uses his knowledge in the marketing area. He also wants to help his old homeland to make it new and actively work on local development. The last decisions of the court could not only strengthen the need for rest in Wackerow, but also support drösen efforts to bring a breath of fresh air to the community as a mayor.
