Three bigwigs back Razon’s mayoral quest
Former Manila councilor Ernesto Dionisio Sr. said three political honchos have joined the ranks of mayoral bet Avelino Razon Jr.
He said the new adherents were Fourth District Rep. Trisha Bonoan-David, Ex-Rep. Mark Jimenez of the Sixth District covering Sta. Mesa, Sta. Ana, Pandacan and San Miguel along with former Councilor Honorio Lopez II of Tondo, younger brother of former Mayor Mel Lopez and twice three-termer Rep. Jaime Lopez.
According to Dionisio, Bonoan-David has signed up in Razon’s ticket, being a colleague in the Nationalist People’s Coalition.
Jimenez, also ”MJ” in his sphere of influence, appears to have been prevailed upon to link arms with the former National Police chief through former Vice Mayor Danilo Lacuna, Razon‘s congressional candidate in the Sixth District.
Boy Lopez, who held several executive posts in the government after his stint at the city council, was convinced that the capital needed a respite from the cycle of politics that merely transferred power from one old leader to another.
”Time for change is now. And Razon is the best alternative,” Dionisio quoted Lopez as saying.
