Lopez of the Nacionalista Party. Davao City Assistant City Prosecutor Rodrigo Duterte, a son of the late Davao Governor Vicente Duterte, was named OIC Vice Mayor.Sison George June 5, 2016 Rody Duterte owes his political career to Cory Aquino Philippine Daily Inquirer http://lifestyle.inquirer.net/230190/rody-duterte-owes-his-political-career-to-cory-aquino/ October 2, 2024 Respicio and Duterte both served until November 1987. Respicio was heavily favored to win the mayoral election, while opposition figures in Davao City were in search of a viable candidate against Respicio. Aside from President Aquino, Respicio also had the full backing and endorsement of former mayor Luis Santos and businessman Jesus Ayala. In 1987, Lakas ng Dabaw was organized as the major opposition coalition in Davao City. Former Senator Alejandro Almendras, a staunch pro-Marcos politician and Nacionalista stalwart, was one of its lead convenors along with other pro-Marcos figures such as Lopez and former Assemblyman Manuel Garcia. Respicio filed his candidacy under PDP–Laban, which he co-founded in 1982 with Senator Nene Pimentel, with former city councilor Dominador Zuño Jr. as his running mate. Meanwhile, the Lakas ng Dabaw bloc nominated Duterte as its candidate for mayor. Duterte was initially reluctant to run, but he did so upon being convinced by Almendras and Lopez that he was the only opposition figure who could strongly challenge Respicio. Lawyer Carmelo Gempesaw was drafted as his running mate. Jun Pala, a popular radio broadcaster and key spokesperson of the Alsa Masa vigilante group, also launched his bid for mayor as an independent. Pala named fellow anti-communist crusader Edmund Pamintuan as his candidate for vice mayor.
