History

The Province of Vibo Valentia was established in 1992, after being separated from the Province of Catanzaro. In its initial phase, the new province was administered by a government-appointed extraordinary commissioner, Alfonso Guido, pending the organisation of its institutional bodies. Following the 1995 elections, Enzo Romeo took office as the first president of the province, marking the beginning of the province's ordinary democratic administration. In accordance with the reform of local authorities introduced in 1993, the president was directly elected by the citizens for a five-year term and was responsible for appointing and dismissing the members of the Provincial Executive.[3]

Following the 2014 Delrio Law, the president is elected by an assembly composed of the mayors and municipal councillors of the municipalities within the province. The president serves a four-year term and acts as the legal representative of the province, presiding over the Provincial Council and the Provincial Assembly of Mayors.[4]
