CEBU CITY, Philippines — At least four barangay officials in Danao City, the bailiwick of the Durano clan, have jumped ship and pledged allegiance to the rival camp of Fifth District

On Tuesday, May 26, 2020, Frasco shared on his Facebook page the photos of Dungga Barangay Captain Telesforo Durano, his councilmen Daniel Alerta and Juanita Lawas, and Sangguniang Kabataan Chairman Remond Lavador as they took their oath with Frasco’s camp.

The oath-taking happened after Frasco, his wife and Liloan Mayor Christina Frasco, Board Member Andre Duterte, and party mate Mike Villamor distributed relief goods and hygiene kits in the different towns in the district last Saturday, May 23. Durano and the other barangay officials are former members of Partidong Barug Alang sa Kauswagan ug Demokrasya of the Durano clan in the fifth district, currently chaired by Danao City Mayor Ramon Durano III.In a statement, Barangay Captain Durano said he decided to pledge allegiance to Frasco as he sought for “change” in government service.

“Dugay nang naghandum ang katawhan [og] kausaban. Among nakita na sa pagpanerbisyo ni Kongresman Frasco, makapanghinaut mi na amo na gyung matagamtaman ang pag-uswag sa among barangay,” Barangay Captain Durano said. To recall, Frasco is the first non-Durano to be elected as the representative of the fifth district in 70 years. The district is composed of the towns of Liloan, Compostela, Carmen, Catmon, Borbon, Sogod, Pilar, Poro, San Francisco, and Tudela, and Danao City.In 2019, Frasco won the seat against former representative Ramon “Red” Durano VI by a margin of 36,000 votes. An electoral protest is still pending before the House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal .
