“Sa mga Sugbuanon nga nag suporta ni Vice President Leni Robredo, mangayo kog pasaylo ug pagsabot kaninyo nga dili madayon ang iyang pagbisita karong adlawa aron motambong sa atong A Better Cebu grand rally sa Talisay City,” (“To our Cebuano supporters of Vice President Leni Robredo, I apologize and ask for understanding from all of you that her visit will not push through to our “A Better Cebu” grand rally in Talisay City”) Davide stated.
The party, which was founded in 2021, has not yet formally declared its presidential candidate, but they are already endorsing Davao Mayor Sara Duterte for vice president.
