TACLOBAN CITY, Philippines – More than 150,000 Warays here roared in the rain as comedian Bayani Agbayani chanted “seconds before presidential candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and his entourage emerged onstage at the jampacked Leyte Sports Development Center on Saturday night, April 9.

NOT SCARED OF RAIN. Tacloban gifts Marcos, the son of their former beauty queen, Imelda, with a crowd of between 150,000 to 200,000 amid stormy weather. Photo by Jazmin Bonifacio The only missing element was his running mate, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte, who spent the day campaigning in the 3rd district of Pangasinan with congressional aspirant Rachel Arenas. Organizers of the Uniteam grand rally here handed out disposable rain ponchos to Marcos loyalists who started trooping to the venue at 10 am – nine hours before the presidential candidate was scheduled to step onstage.

Worried organizers appealed over the loudspeakers for people to slow down, warning of possible accidents.The rally host said the audience took up the venue’s total 200,000 capacity. Earlier in the day, organizers said it could accommodate only between 70,000 to 100,000 persons. Marcos’ presidential race rival, Vice President Leni Robredo, defeated the son of the dictator in Southern Leyte in 2016. But Governor Damian Mercado on April 9 pledged to deliver 200,000 of his province’s 293,000 voters for the Uniteam bets on election day.“I’m here in Tacloban and it’s raining hard. Our pilot said it is very risky to continue our trip to Southern Leyte,” Marcos said.The Uniteam pushed through with their rally in Baybay City, Leyte.
