Pacquiao’s role in Kadaugan faces scrutiny
The Freeman
|March 28, 2025
Amid criticism over senatorial aspirant Manny Pacquiao’s portrayal of Lapu-Lapu in the Kadaugan sa Mactan celebration, the Commission on Elections in Central Visayas (COMELEC-7) clarified that there is no issue with his participation as long as it has been approved by the main office in Manila.
COMELEC-7 Regional Director Atty. Francisco Pobe emphasized that election laws regarding public performances by candidates are not absolute.
The Republic Act 9006, or the Fair Election Act, governs election campaign activities to regulate political advertisements, propaganda, and campaign conduct. Among the regulations stipulated in the Act is the prohibition of certain activities during the campaign period. This includes showing, displaying, or exhibiting any movie, documentary, concert, or performance portraying the life or biography of a candidate, or where a candidate is portrayed by an actor or media personality.
