ORMOC CITY – Political saboteurs who have been trying to put a wedge be- tween the Gomezes and the Locsins are in for a big dis- appointment. They failed miserably. Mayor Richard Gomez, in a meeting with allied barangay chairmen this Tuesday (July 17), said that the Ormoc Development Team (ODT) are now readying themselves for the May 2019 elec- tions. “Lucy will run again for Con- gress,” he said, while he and Vice Mayor Leo Carmelo Locsin Jr. will run in the city, together with six incumbents of the ODT. The mayor added that since councilor Mario Rodriguez is on his last term, ODT is eyeing his younger brother “Perok” would take his place. There is also Roilan Villasencio who will take over the BEAUTIFUL OFFICIALS FOR BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE. Ormoc Mayor Richard Gomez, Rep. Lucy Torres-Gomez, and Vice Mayor Toto Locsin Jr. is spot of first councilor Engr.
