MANILA, Philippines – After what seems like more than two years of controversial issues and a seesaw situation, the people of Imus in Cavite have finally spoken – Emmanuel “Manny” Maliksi of the Liberal Party will once again take the seat as mayor.
Imus Comelec Supervisor Jasmine Gilera proclaimed 8 am today that Liberal Party bet Manny Maliksi won in Imus City election. Maliksi got 52, 137 votes against Nacionalista bet Homer Saquilayan’s 49,562 votes.
The two mayoral candidates were the center of several political protests starting from 2010. The Commission on Elections declared Saquilayan as the rightful winner of the 2010 mayoral elections, ordering Maliksi to give up his position.
This was affirmed by the Supreme Court through a decision dated March 12 of this year.
But in a turn of events, SC reversed its decision and granted the LP candidate permission to still take over Imus.
This would be Maliksi’s third term after winning the 2007 and 2010 elections. – With reports from Tricia Villaluz and Jodezs Gavilan/Rappler.com
