PDP-Laban stands by Bong Go

THE ruling Partido Demokratiko Pilipino–Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) on has reiterated its full support for the presidential bid of Sen. Christopher Lawrence 'Bong' Go, a day after Davao City Mayor and vice presidential candidate Sara Duterte-Carpio formalized her alliance with ex-senator Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. for the May 2022 elections.

Lawyer Melvin Matibag, secretary general of the PDP-Laban led by Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi, made the statement on Wednesday after Duterte-Carpio admitted seeking the support of PDP-Laban, the political party of her father, but rejected their tandem.
