THERE is no doubt that Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro of Lakas-Kampi-CMD has changed the way masses perceived how, what, who and the things that he is capable of doing. Notably, he is the youth’s choice for the next President topping most mock polls conducted on every university all across the Philippines after his chance of delivering his platforms of his candidacy.
Lakas-Kampi-CMD president and governor of Sarangani Migz Dominguez said this is because the youth consider Teodoro as their role model. “To the youth, Gibo is tops in intelligence, leadership excellence and quality and vision for our people,” Dominguez said.
Here are the list of NOTABLE things that happened the past few weeks:
