Pasay City, Jan. 24, 1998 - A son of Pasay Mayor Pablo Cuneta will run for mayor against the candidate of his stepmother Elaine Cuneta in the May elections.
Generoso Cuneta, president of the Pasay City Association of Barangay Captains, is the 13th member of the city council. He said he intends to continue the legacy of his ailing 88-year-old father, who has been confined at the Makati Medical Center for a week
The younger Cuneta, Mayor Cuneta's son by his late first wife, sponsored a city council resolution to declare his father as temporarily incapacitated. He blamed stepmother Elaine for forcing the mayor to go to city hall to reassume his post.
Mrs. Elaine Cuneta is reportedly teaming up with retiring Congressman Jovito Claudio who will run for mayor. Elaine will run for congress, to take the seat that Claudio is vacating.
