5-way fight for Cebu governor

Former Tourism Secretary Joseph Felix Mari “Ace” Durano of Bakud and the Partido Pilipino sa Pagbabago was the first to submit his candidacy last Thursday, October 7.

“We initially thought only a few will be filing because of the pandemic. Now, we have five aspiring governors. And three for vice governors. Based on our observations, this year’s filing has more candidates than the previous elections, back when there’s no pandemic,” Castillano said in Cebuano.Some aspirants were able to make it before the deadline except for a certain Eduardo Adlawan from Naga City, a former employee of the Capitol, who plans to run as Board Member of the 1st District.

In the case of Adlawan, the Comelec-Cebu official said they did not accept his application since he submitted it at 5:03 p.m., just three minutes shy from the deadline.
