MANILA, Philippines – Despite getting much flak from private citizens across the metropolis, “BAYANI" stickers can now be found plastered on areas far from Metro Manila's major thoroughfares.
Radio dzBB reported that the stickers were spotted on tricycles in the cities of Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas, and Valenzuela and on windshields of buses with provincial routes.
Earlier, Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) chairman Bayani Fernando expressed his ambitions to run in the 2010 elections intent on becoming the next “no-nonsense president of the country"
The MMDA chairman admitted that the stickers were from his private fund and that he wanted to "introduce" himself to the public. He added that the “BAYANI" stickers are an articulation of his belief that the country needs “bayani" or a hero.
The MMDA, however, disowned the stickers and said that these were Fernando’s private efforts.
Only those posters and tarpaulins which indicate government property" or "printed by MMDA" are funded by the agency. - Sophi Dedace, GMANews.TV
