Robin Padilla was named as the 12th senatorial candidate of UniTeam
Presidential aspirant Bongbong Marcos and vice-presidential aspirant Sara Duterte of the UniTeam apparently have different views when it comes to having actor Robin Padilla in their group.
During the proclamation rally of BBM-Sara tandem last week, 11 senatorial candidates under their team were named. There was one spot left and they intended to fill it but havenât announced yet at that time.
Based on the report from Inquirer.net, Robin Padilla got the spot as he was named as the 12th senatorial candidate of the UniTeam. During a grand rally at the Paoay Sand Dunes in Ilocos Norte on Wednesday night, Mayor Sara Duterte announced that the action movie star will be part of their team.
Earlier that day, the BBM-Sara tandem had a motorcade through several towns in Ilocos Norte. This area is considered to be the bailiwick of Marcos.
âFirst of all, about our senators who are with us on the UniTeam: We already have twelve on this day,â the vice-presidential aspirant said and then announced the names of their senatorial lineup.
However, after that political event, former Senator Bongbong Marcos had a different statement. He said that Robin is not part of the UniTeam. He said that the Robin was ânot in the twelve but is part of the group.â
In line with this, Robin Padilla said that he is under the Davao City Mayor. ââYung sa amin ni Maâam Sara, talagang akoây nasa ilalim niya,â the senatorial aspirant said. Previously, the presidential daughter included Robin in her list of âfriendsâ.
Regarding the UniTeam name for their gorup, the Davao City Mayor said, âBecause we want to a give a face to the saying: âIn unity, there is strength.â
