Durano-Davide tandem for Cebu
CEBU CITY, Philippines – It’s going to be a Durano-Davide tandem for the gubernatorial race in Cebu province.
This after Cebu Vice Gov. Hilario Davide III on Thursday, September 30 confirmed to be the running mate of former Tourism Secretary Ace Durano.
“Taud-taud nakong nakaila ni Ace. Maayo kaayong tawo si Ace. Matarong, sinsero, mapaubsanon, may katakos, kalma ug angayan sad gyud nga mahimong lider natong mga Sugbuanon. His track record as representative of the 5th district and tourism secretary speaks for itself,” said Davide in a statement.
(I have known Ace for quite a while now. Ace is a good person. Proper, sincere, humble, has the skills, cool and deserves to become a leader of the Cebuanos. His track record as representative of the 5th district and tourism secretary speaks for itself.)
Davide’s announcement came just hours after Durano made public his bid for the province’s top position.
Before Davide and Durano made the announcement, reports have been circulating that the two paired up to run for governor and vice governor for the May 2022 national elections.
Davide previously served as governor for two terms from 2013 to 2019.
