The recruitments intensified during the election month of May, and many poor people from the outlying villages of Davao Oriental, Davao de Oro, and Davao del Norte scrambled to pay the membership fees. Herbal medicine vendor Mercedita Tagalandig said she joined the bandwagon because nearly all the people in her community paid the membership fees.Marcos, she said, was already emerging as the sure winner, and she had thought that she would financially benefit from his election victory in terms of Marcos wealth shares.
He called on those who paid the groups’ membership fees to file formal complaints as he prepares to bring the matter before the Mati city council.
