00:12Doomsday preacher Apolo Kibuloy runs for senator.

00:16The Nograles siblings challenge the Dutertes in Davao City.

00:19Alice Guo is not running for re-election.

00:24The Category 5 Hurricane Milton threatens Florida where more than a million people were

00:28ordered to evacuate.

00:30And South Korean agency YG Entertainment is looking for the next K-pop talent and will

00:34hold auditions in Manila.

00:37Doomsday preacher Apolo Kibuloy, in jail for alleged sexual abuse and human trafficking,

00:42is running for senator.

00:44The Kamala confirms Kibuloy filed his candidacy through a representative Tuesday, October

00:488.

00:49Kibuloy's EOC indicates the Workers' and Peasants' Party nominated him, but WPP officers say

00:54they did not sign a CONA for him.

00:56There were rumors Duterte would switch candidacy from mayor to senator, but the filing period

01:00closed and he didn't turn up.

01:02Meantime, TV host Willie Revillameh is running for senator as an independent candidate.

01:07He says the bickering of politicians convinced him to run.

01:10Also running for senator are ABS-CBN franchise killer Rodante Marcoleta of Sagip Partylist

01:15and flip-flopping drug war whistleblower Peter Bikoy Advincula.

01:19For the opposition working to regain numbers in Congress, Kiko Pangilinan filed his bid

01:23to return to the Senate.

01:24He ran for vice president in 2022 but lost to Sara Duterte.

01:31Former Duterte Cabinet Secretary Carlo Nograles files his candidacy for Davao mayor on Tuesday,

01:36October 8 while his sister Margarita Migs Nograles launches her bid for the congressional

01:40seat in the city's 1st district.

01:42The Nograles' move is seen as a challenge to the political leadership of the Duterte

01:46family in Davao.

01:48Former President Rodrigo Duterte is also running for Davao mayor, with his son Mayor Basted

01:52Duterte sliding down to be his running mate.

01:55Carlo's decision to run for mayor rekindles memories of the long and bitter political

01:59feud between the Duterte and Nograles families, which began in the 1990s.

02:04Meantime, former Manila Mayor Isko Moreno and incumbent Mayor Honey Lacuna are vying

02:08for the same mayoral seat.

02:10Moreno files his candidacy on Tuesday, October 8 while Lacuna launched her re-election bid

02:15last Thursday, October 3.

02:17In 2019, Moreno and Lacuna ran as a team, and both won as mayor and vice mayor, respectively.

02:32Dismissed Mambanterlac Mayor Alice Guo is not running for re-election in 2025.

02:37This is contrary to what her lawyer, Stephen David, said earlier.

02:41Asked what made her change her mind, Guo says in a Senate hearing Tuesday, October 8, she

02:45wanted to face allegations against her.

02:47Before Tuesday, Guo was reportedly eyeing either re-election or running for Pampanga

02:523rd District Representative.

02:54The ombudsman dismissed Guo from service, while the Solicitor General initiated a separate

02:58case to challenge her right to hold public office.

03:01Guo is currently detained at the Pasig City Jail over charges of human trafficking.

03:06She is also facing other cases, including graft, tax evasion, and money laundering.

03:12The Category 5 Hurricane Milton is expected to grow larger on Tuesday, October 8 as it

03:17threatens Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula on its way to Florida, where more than a million

03:21people were ordered to evacuate.

03:23With one day for people to evacuate, evacuees deal with traffic jams and long lines at gas

03:28stations.

03:29With maximum sustained winds of 270 kmph, it was expected to grow in size before making

03:35landfall Wednesday.

03:36The U.S. National Hurricane Center forecast storm surges of 10 to 15 feet.

03:41It was likely to hit the Tampa Bay metropolitan area, home to 3 million people still reeling

03:46from the devastation of Hurricane Helene.

03:49Category 4 Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida on September 26 and killed more

03:53than 200 people.

03:55Milton could decrease to a Category 4 storm by the time it hits Florida.

04:00YG Entertainment, the South Korean music agency behind K-pop powerhouses Big Bang, 2NE1, and

04:07Blackpink, is looking for Filipino talents to add to their roster.

04:11The label announces it is holding a YG Global Audition on November 24 at the Zero Studio

04:16Kedoon City.

04:17The auditions are open to aspiring idols born between 2006 and 2013.

04:27The label says pre-registration may close before the set deadline and no walk-ins will be allowed

04:37was founded by Yang Hyun Suk.
