Pimentel: 'With this latest action from Secretary Cusi and his cohorts, they have manifested that they are total strangers to PDP-Laban.' | deejayapINQ JMAurelioINQ NCorralesINQ /PDI
“In Germany for example, a political party formed to oppose Adolf Hitler will definitely not support an Adolf Hitler Jr.,” Pimentel said, adding: “That’s simple logic. Consistent with the PDP-Laban history and party constitution!”Months before the filing of the certificates of candidacy in October last year, Cusi led a faction that claimed it had support from the majority of party members. The other party members remained loyal to then-acting party president Sen.
The PDP-Laban became the dominant party in the country after President RodrigoDuterte won the 2016 election.The Cusi faction, which is backed by Duterte, said in a resolution that Marcos “is the candidate whose platform is most aligned with the development program” of the president.It earlier announced its support for Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte as the running mate of Marcos.
Bayan Muna chair and senatorial candidate Neri Colmenares said the Cusi faction’s endorsement of Marcos was a “grave betrayal” of the party that was formed to oppose the Marcos dictatorship. “In their endorsement of Bongbong Marcos, the party leadership is spitting on themselves and the graves of more than 70,000 victims of martial law,” Colmenares said.
