+ April 28, 2021 BASED on latest political satellite trackers, it looks like the reported clash between Bacolod Mayor Bing Leonardia and former 3rd District congressman and gambling mogul Albee Benitez is becoming unavoidable, especially with the latter’s increasing visibility in a number of recent events in Bacolod and the issuance of manifesto of support by majority of mayors in the province.
While Albee remains mum himself on the mayoralty bid, his recent highly publicized presence and eye-catching actuations in the city are sending a strong message that he would likely challenge Mayor Bing.
So, will there really be “engkwentro” o “areglo”? Analyzing Albee moves and the declarations of his allies, supporters and campaign partisans, it is now highly possible that he would challenge Mayor Bing.
