The proposal, approved by the Technical Commission for Nomenclature and Street and Public Property Naming, involves changing the current name of Ramón Manchón Street to Antonio Corujo Tejera Street. In turn, the road known as C67 will adopt the name of Ramón Manchón.

The council highlights the undeniable work of Antonio Corujo as a disseminator of Lanzarote's popular culture, especially through his contribution to the preservation of the verses of Víctor Fernández El Salinero. His ability to project the island's cultural identity, both within and outside the archipelago, has been fundamental.

Born in San Bartolomé in 1933, Antonio Corujo was deeply connected to Lanzarote's oral and musical tradition from a young age, inheriting an important folkloric legacy. His artistic career included participation in historical groups such as the Agrupación Folclórica Ajei, the Ranchos de Pascua de San Bartolomé, and the Parranda de Los Buches, in addition to collaborating with renowned Canarian musicians and performing on various national and international stages.

Beyond his artistic facet, Antonio Corujo maintained a close relationship with Arrecife, where he worked for decades as a barber. His establishments, first on Calle Real and later on Callejón Artillero Luis Tresguerras (now Ramón Manchón Street), became social and cultural meeting points in the city.

Among the many recognitions he received throughout his life is that of Favorite Son of Lanzarote, as well as numerous tributes and cultural projects that consolidated his figure as one of the great references of Canarian folklore.
