The Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (CMD) political party on Saturday slammed Butch Belgica of the Pederalismo ng Dugong Dakilang Samahan (PDDS) for sowing intrigues after the latter accused administration allies of conspiring against President Rodrigo Duterte.

Lakas-CMD turned the tables on Belgica, challenging him to stop playing dirty politics instead.

“Mr. Belgica should stop sowing intrigues that divide forces loyal to the President. Itigil na po niya ang maruming pulitika (He should stop dirty politics),” Lakas-CMD said in a statement.

Belgica accused Duterte allies of conspiring against the chief executive after the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP), Lakas-CMD, Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP), and Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP) forged a coalition Thursday for the 2022 presidential elections under the UniTeam Alliance.

Citing supposed greed for power and without mentioning any names, Belgica said these allies have allegedly undermined Duterte.

“Mr. Butch Belgica of PDDS equates years of public service by former Presidents as greed for power. He might be speaking based on his own experience. Baka iyon lang po kasi ang nagtutulak kay Mr. Belgica para pumasok sa gobyerno (Perhaps that is what pushes Belgica to join government): Greed,” Lakas-CMD said.

The party also reaffirmed once again its unequivocal support to Duterte.

“The Lakas-CMD and its partners in the UniTeam Alliance have made it clear: we are in full support of President Duterte and his administration,” the party said.

Lakas-CMD chairperson and vice presidential aspirant Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio has declared that her father, President Duterte, is the number one senatorial candidate of her party.

Duterte-Carpio is the running mate of former Sen. Ferdinand Marcos Jr., who is going against PDDS standard bearer Sen. Christopher Go.
