By Mortz C. Ortigoza

BAYAMBANG, Pangasinan – A congressional candidate vehemently denied that he and his governorship bet son betrayed Urdaneta City Mayor Julio “Rammy” Parayno, III that caused the mayor in deserting them in favor of their electoral rivals.

“Ito ang pangyayari: Pinag-dududahan kasi ni Mayor Parayno na pinapalaban daw namin si Mayor Bobom Perez. Kasi daw (kami) nagpapalaban sa kanya. Sabi ko papaano ko ipapalaban sa iyo si Bobom Perez e iyong CONA (Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance) ni Mayor Parayno galing sa akin, “disclosed by Binalonan Mayor and Lakas-CMD Chairman in Pangasinan Ramon “Monching” Guico, Jr.

He even issued the CONA not only to Parayno but to his vice mayor and his candidates to the city council.

“Ano ba baliw ba ako na magbibigasy ako ng CONA sa kanila tapos palabanan ko,” he stressed.

FIRES BACK. Pangasinan Fifth District Congressional Candidate Ramon "Monching" Guico, Jr. (left photo) fires back to the incompetence of Urdaneta City Mayor Rammy Parayno, III (top, right photo  after the latter absconded him and his governorship bet son Fifth District Rep. Ramon "Monmon" Guico, III by joining  the party of their political rivals headed by Pangasinan Governor Amado "Pogi" Espino, III.

The Urdaneta Mayor earlier smarted that he abandoned the Guicos because he heard the solon went to the house of the city’s former mayor Amadeo "Bobom" Gregorio Perez, IV to goad him to run against Parayno in the May 9, 2022 election.

“Matagal ko ng kinikimkim iyan at alam ko rin na nag-uusap at pumupunta pa mismo si Cong.Mon-mon sa bahay ng mga Perez at bakit pa nila ako pinalabanan kung talagang kaalyado nila ako?” Parayno said.

He used to be a party man and would not easily bolt to the other camp, he added.
“Hindi ko naman gagawin iyong babaligtad ako sa grupo dahil “ party man” at kaalyado nila ako”.

The older Guico said it was Perez who went to the abode of the congressman and told him and the mayor about the clamor of the people of Urdaneta City for him to challenge Parayno because of his incompetence.

“Tinanong ko sa kanya. Bakit ka lalaban in the first place wala kang line-up. In the second place kulang ka sa bala. Mahirap mangampanya sabi ko kung wala kang bala at saka wala kang line-up. Iyan ay sinabi ko sa kanya. Tao na ang nag-uudyok sa akin dahil maraming nagawang kapalpakan, sabi niya,” Guico quoted Perez.

Perez cited to him how Parayno constricted the national highway when the shoulders of the road he used as parking space for vehicles.

Guico did not believe that Parayno absconded him and his son by supporting anew the re-elective Pangasinan Governor Amado “Pogi” Espino, III could affect him and his son’s electoral stocks in the 90, 000 vote rich city of the Fifth Congressional District.

“Hindi. Kasi si Monmon maraming ng na establish na project sa Urdaneta. Marami siya nakuhang barangay officials doon. Actually ito ang sasabihin ko sa inyo. Actually ito ang na sense namin through our survey ano na iyong popularity ni Parayno downward na”.

He exposed that members of the Tricycle Operators and Drivers' Association (TODA) in the city turned sour to the 2019 mayorship election's candidate after Parayno breached on his promise to lower by fifty percent their penalty if apprehended violating the local traffic laws.

Print and radio reporters pose for posterity with Lakas –CMD Chairman in Pangasinan and congressional candidate Ramon “Monching” Guico, Jr. after Guico assailed in an interview Urdaneta City Mayor Rammy Parayno. Parayno earlier abandoned Guico and his governorship bet son and namesake because of feeling betrayed after he was informed that one of the Guicos persuaded Urdaneta City former mayor Amado “Bobom” Perez, IV to run against him in the 2022 election.

The Binalonan Mayor pointed also to the viral video in the social media of the abuses of Parayno’s market law and order enforcers to the vendors.

“Nakita ninyo siguro nag viral kung ano ang ginagawa ng mga tao niya sa mga tindera sa loob ng palengke sinisipa ang mga kuwan nila”

Guico and members of the Opposition in Pangasinan from the congressional, provincial, and mayoral elective officials converged recently at the Event Center here for their pledge of support to the presidential and vice presidential candidacies of Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. and Sara Duterte, respectively.

The meeting was headed by Bayambang Mayor Cezar T. Quiambao- the major financier of the group dubbed as Aguila – who opposed the reelection of Governor Espino and his allies in the congressional, provincial, and municipal positions in the next year’s poll.
