MANILA – Eric Negapatan, who claims to be an uncle of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., is aspiring to earn a seat in the Senate in the 2025 midterm elections.
According to Negapatan, he was adopted by Josefa Edralin Marcos and Mariano Marcos, grandparents of President Marcos, and was left with P800 quadrillion inheritance.
“Bata pa lang ako, sanggol pa lang ako inampon na ‘ko ni Josefa Edralin Marcos. Lahat iniwan sakin ni Doña Josefa, pero nang President na si Bongbong Marcos, ibinigay ko rin sa kanya,” Negapatan said.
Negapatan promised that if he earns a seat in the Senate, he will bring back the P800 quadrillion inheritance, which he said is deposited in a bank in London, and will distribute it to the Filipinos.
Negapatan, who was declared a nuisance candidate during the 2016 presidential polls, also vowed that Filipinos will no longer need to pay for grains, water, and electricity by next year.
“Nakausap ko ang lahat ng hari ng mga bansa. By this 2025, wala na pong bibili ng bigas, wala na pong magbabayad ng tubig, wala nang magbabayad ng kuryente,” Negapatan said.
Others who filed their COCs for senator yesterday were re-electionists Imee Marcos and action star Manuel “Lito” Lapid, both part of the administration’s “Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas” ticket.
Meanwhile, aiming for a return in the Senate are losing 2022 presidential and vice presidential candidates Panfilo Lacson and Vicente Sotto III.
Panay News has learned that PDP-Laban candidates Sen. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa, Sen. Christopher “Bong” Go, and actor Philip Salvador, as well as Lakas-CMD’s Sen. Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr. are set to file their COCs today./PN
