Ex-Arroyo allies align with LP for 2013 polls

MANILA (Updated) — Former allies of Pampanga Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo who formed the National Unity Party (NUP) have decided to align themselves with the ruling Liberal Party (LP) for the 2013 midterm elections.
“We have an ongoing negotiation with LP for a possible coalition. We will support senatorial candidates of the LP,” NUP chairman and Cebu Representative Pablo Garcia said in an interview.
NUP is composed of former members of the Kabalikat ng Malayang Pilipino (Kampi) faction of the Lakas-Kampi-CMD, a majority party during the term of Arroyo as President.
LP, on the other hand, is led by Arroyo’s successor President Benigno Aquino III.
LP and NUP will sign an agreement on Friday, September 28, just three days before the filing of certificates of candidacy starts.
Not one member of the LP ticket, however, attended the first national convention of NUP held Wednesday.
Instead, present in the NUP meeting were San Juan City Representative Joseph Victor Ejercito and reelectionist Senator Gregorio Honasan II, both running under the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) of former President Joseph Estrada and Vice President Jejomar Binay.
NUP president and Nueva Ecija Representative Rodolfo Antonino said Ejercito and Honasan were invited as “friends” of the party’s members.
To recall, the NUP chairman’s daughter, Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia, dropped her bid to run for Senate under UNA because she will seek a House of Representatives seat in Cebu’s third congressional district.
House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr., vice chair of the LP, was also elected by the NUP as its chairman emeritus Wednesday.
Speaking before members of the NUP, Belmonte said the new political party will be “accorded with much respect and equal treatment” by the administration party.
LP has also earlier forged an alliance with the Nacionalista Party and Nationalist People’s Coalition.
“NUP should not just be an acronym. It should be a movement for national unity and reconciliation,” Belmonte said as he praised the “hardworking” members of the party.
At least 30 members of the House belong to the NUP.
“NUP will not only endure and survive in the political jungle, but it will triumph and prevail, just watch,” Garcia said.
NUP received its accreditation from the Commission on Elections last year. (Kathrina Alvarez/Sunnex)
