BREAKING NEWS: ‘BONG OBERO’ FOR MAYOR?

A source from the Commission on Elections has informed that Bong Obero, the man allegedly behind the virtual human trafficking of boxers to Thailand, is running for public office while the family of Lito Sisnorio, who died in a boxing match in Thailand, is grieving over the death of the boxer.

Philboxing.com has been informed that Obero, who is using his real name ‘Ranilo Terania,’ is running for Mayor in Bayawan City in Negros Oriental as an independent candidate.

He is the only challenger to incumbent Mayor German Sarana Jr, who is running under the administration Lakas-CMD ticket.

Obero had been quoted as saying in the past that he wanted to run for mayor of Bayawan because ‘the city has a very large IRA’ (Internal Revenue Allotment) from the government.
