We have a business partner who just ran for councilor but was gunned down days before the election. It was a traumatic experience for him and the family. He is alive but pays for a bevy of security numbering
12 in all
It was insane to be gunned down near your home and witnessed by your wife and children. And there could be not valid reason for the hit since he was a kind hearted barangay chairman for several years.
And all he could tell me as is in an island province is that it is politically motivated. His opponents do not want him alive, because as he is coming out to be the strongest councilor, he could be very well be the next VM or Mayor.
How brutal and insane could politics be even in small distant towns in the province.
