Gubernatorial candidate Atty. Dan Neri Lim, a staunch supporter of former President Rodrigo “Rody” Duterte and Vice President Sara Duterte, announced his slate of candidates for provincial positions in Bohol province during his final appearance on the radio program Barog Bohol on Thursday, March 27, 2025.

Lim, who will step down as a radio anchor once the official campaign period begins, revealed that his running mate for vice governor is Engr. Gerry Garcia. 

The candidates, backed by Lim, are known for their allegiance to the Dutertes.

For congressional seats, Lim named incumbent Representative Atty. Edgar Chatto as his choice for the first district, Engineer Modesto Membreve for the second district, and Atty. Mc Aldous Castañares for the third district. 

At the provincial board level, Lim endorsed Benjie Arcamo and Aldner Damalerio for the first district, Mimi Boniel and Franz Garcia for the second district, and incumbent Board Member Elpidio Bonita for the third district.

Lim,  noting his alignment with the Dutertes’ populist policies, said his platform focuses on improving the quality of life for Boholanos. 

He will face off against incumbent Governor Aris Aumentado in the upcoming election. 

Aumentado, who has already declared Philippine Councilors League Bohol chapter president Nicanor Besas as his running mate during a proclamation rally last year, remains a formidable opponent.
