Timi Aquino, wife of former Senator and independent senatorial candidate Bam Aquino, and actress Marjorie Barretto have teamed up for a house-to-house campaign at Barangay Krus na Ligas in Diliman, Quezon City, rallying support for Bam Aquino’s senatorial bid in the upcoming May elections.
Timi Aquino is often mistaken by netizens for Marjorie due to their striking resemblance.
Timi and Marjorie distributed flyers and posters while engaging residents about the former Senator’s advocacies, plans and programs if he secures a Senate seat.
They also gamely posed for photos with residents while flashing the No. 5 sign, indicating Senator Bam’s number on the ballot.
Bam Aquino is gunning for a Senate seat, running on the platform of expanding the Free College Law to cover more students and ensure that the subsidy for other school expenses under the law is provided. He has also committed to push for guaranteed employment for Filipinos.
Bam expressed confidence that his numbers will pick up once his campaign volunteers intensify their campaign in various parts of the country.
“Naniniwala kami na gaya rin nang dati, gaya noong 2022, nagsimula noong kampanya, pasimula pa lang but by the end of the campaign nayanig iyong buong pundasyon ng politika sa Pilipinas” Bam said, referring to the presidential campaign of former Vice President Leni Robredo in 2022.
“Iyon rin ang makikita po natin. Mula ngayon for the next 90 days lalabas ang mga tao at makikita nila na maganda tayong alternatibo,” he added.
