Isko vs Lacuna for Manila mayor?

Mark Ernest Villeza - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — The battle between Manila Mayor Honey Lacuna and defeated presidential candidate Isko Moreno appears to be inevitable in the 2025 midterm elections.

Yesterday, Lacuna formally announced her reelection bid, with Vice Mayor Yul Servo as her running mate.

Reports said that former Manila mayor Isko Moreno may seek to reclaim his post under Aksyon Demokratiko, a political party he heads. 

Lacuna was Moreno’s vice mayor in the 2019 elections.

In an earlier statement, Lacuna said she respects Moreno’s decision, but asked him to reconsider his political plans for 2025.

Lacuna, who is on her first term, expressed confidence that Manila residents would give her a fresh three-year term to continue the programs she has initiated for the city.
