NANCY BINAY TO RUN FOR MAKATI MAYOR, FILES COC ON FIRST DAY

By Liza Soriano

MANILA — Senator Nancy Binay, now on her last term in the Senate, filed her certificate of candidacy on Tuesday (October 1, 2024) to run for mayor of Makati City.

Binay filed her candidacy at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Makati City.

Previously, Binay expressed second thoughts about running for mayor after her sister, incumbent Mayor Abby Binay, announced that her husband, Makati Rep. Luis Campos, would also be vying for the position.

However, she ultimately decided to run due to the requests from her constituents.

“Syempre ang consideration ko is parang at the end of the day, hindi ko puwedeng pabayaan yung mga kababayan ko sa Makati. Kailangan ang mag-aalaga sa kanila ay kayang ibigay ang pag-aalagang ibinigay ng mga Binay,” Binay said.
