ILOILO Governor Arthur “Toto” Defensor Jr. has exhorted his constituents to elect only competent, smart and responsible leaders during the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) elections on October 30, 2023.

LET us be clear about this: a “declaration of support” is different from “doing it on my own initiative.”

ASIDE from the protest or condemnation rally—or whatever type of rally or street noise the taxpayers have undertaken and are still planning to stage—a formal complaint in the Office of the Ombudsman must be lodged soon against the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and the International Builders Corporation (IBC) in relation to the P680-million Iloilo flyover project or Ungka Flyover (UFO) in Ungka, Pavia.

WE can’t blame Iloilo City officials led by Mayor Geronimo “Jerry” Treñas and Lone District Rep. Julienne “Jamjam” Baronda if they nearly went berserk over the weekend and threatened to declare an Armageddon against the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP).

IN my personal opinion, Senator Cynthia Villar has no humility.
