Religious group Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) has officially endorsed the senatorial bid of former Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Mark A. Villar for the upcoming national elections.
The influential religious group made the announcement during the “Mata ng Agila” news program over Net 25 on Tuesday night whose primary stakeholders hold key positions within the powerful church group.
Villar, a candidate from the UniTeam, thanked INC for supporting his bid for a Senate seat on Monday’s elections.
“Taos puso po akong nagpapasalamat sa milyun-milyong kapatiran ng Iglesia ni Cristo sa pangunguna ng kanilang Tagapamahalang Pangkalahatan Kapatid Eduardo V. Manalo. Pinahahalagahan ko po ang suportang ibinigay ninyo sa akin, sisikapin ko po na ang tiwalang pinag kaloob ninyo sa akin ay magbubunga”, Villar said.
Villar’s platform, if elected, is the continuation of the incumbent administration’s flagship “Build, Build, Build” program infrastructure modernization program. -30-
