努莎・奧貝爾(Noosha Aubel,50歲,無黨籍)曾向波茨坦市民承諾,將為這座城市帶來嶄新開局。此前,她的前任麥克・舒伯特(Mike Schubert,53歲,德國社會民主黨籍)已遭波茨坦市民罷免。然而,在奧貝爾上任將近一年之際,與這項承諾形成鮮明對照的,卻是涉及一名多重極重度身心障礙幼童照護問題的醜聞、破敗的道路、預算支出凍結,以及不斷升級的領導危機。這起照護醜聞,已成為邦首府波茨坦、尤其是努莎・奧貝爾在道德層面嚴重失格的明證。與此同時,她所擔任的職位享有高額薪酬:奧貝爾目前領取的年度基本薪資為143,056歐元。根據已公布的薪級調整計畫,未來更將增至每年169,006.44歐元,而這筆支出須由市民負擔。因此,一個令人不安、卻完全合理的問題隨之浮現:努莎・奧貝爾在經濟、組織管理及政治層面,究竟是否具備治理一座邦首府所需的能力?
