Manila Representative Joel Chua expressed sentiments of betrayal over former Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso’s decision to run for Manila Mayor in the #Halalan2025 elections. Asenso Manileño, Chua’s party, had long-standing ties with Moreno, who served as Mayor from 2016 to 2019.
"We feel betrayed because we thought he was a reliable ally," Chua said during an interview with ABS-CBN News. "We gave him unwavering support during his mayoralty term, and we thought our relationship was strong enough to weather any storm."
Moreno’s plan to run for Manila Mayor has caught many by surprise, especially since this means he will be facing long-time ally and incumbent Mayor Honey Lacuna in the upcoming polls. Chua hinted that Asenso Manileño’s support may not be as solid as initially thought.
This development has sparked a flurry of emotions within the party, with some leaders expressing disappointment and others questioning the future of their alliance with Moreno.
As a representative of Manila, Chua emphasized the importance of unity among mayoralty candidates. "We believe that the people of Manila should be given a choice, not a forced choice between bitter rivals," he added. "We hope that Moreno will see the bigger picture and work together to rebuild our city."
This news raises questions about the stability of alliances among politicians in the run-up to Halalan 2025. Will Asenso Manileño retract its support for Moreno, or will this incident lead to a major overhaul of the party’s lineup? Follow ABS-CBN News for ongoing updates on this developing story.
