Comelec,Ferdinand Marcos Jr.,Philippine Politics

A faction within the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas says South Cotabato Governor Reynaldo Tamayo Jr., the leader of another PFP wing, has been reluctant to engage in mediation to settle the dispute

This is AI generated summarization, which may have errors. For context, always refer to the full article.

Tamayo has refused to recognize the party’s general assembly and elections of executive officers in Pasig, even referring to it as “illegitimate and a nuisance activity by some few members and former members.” Aside from Verceles, who was named president then, Presidential Assistant Antonio Lagdameo Jr. was elected as the party’s national vice president, Antonio Rodriguez Jr. as secretary-general, Antonio Marfori as national treasurer, Rudyard Avila III as party general counsel, and Julius Caesar Aguiluz as senior political adviser.

On March 6 of this year, the group of Verceles submitted a petition before the Comelec “to challenge the legitimacy of the authority” of Tamayo, Thompson Lantion as secretary-general, and George Briones as party general counsel, all of whom continue to hold on to their posts beyond their two-year terms.
