MANILA, Philippines — A breakaway group of the fractured Partido Federal ng Pilipinas has decided to shift its endorsement and support the presidency of Vice President Leni Robredo less than a month after its announcement to endorse Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno.

 

Like other Moreno groups going on a tangent toward the vice president, the faction led by party chairman Abubakar Mangelen said in a resolution that there was a need “for a more formidable team" against Ferdinand Marcos Jr., whom the group said was "the greatest threat to our country and our democracy."

 

Marcos is now standard-bearer of the opposing faction of the PFP after the party named him its chairman in October 2021.
