The Citizens’ Battle Against Corruption (CIBAC) Party-List, led by Congressman Bro. Eddie Villanueva, will have number 93 as its official ballot number for the May 2025 National and Local Elections.
On Friday, October 18, the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) conducted an electronic raffle of party-lists eligible to run for next year’s polls to determine the order of their listing in the official ballot.
CIBAC vows to continue to push for the Freedom of Information (FOI) bill, death penalty for P100M plunder bill, anti-online gambling bill and other anti-corruption legislations aimed at freeing the government coffers from the bondage of graft and corruption.
CIBAC is the country’s longest serving party-list, undefeated since 2001. It has pushed for more than 280 laws including landmark ones such the Anti-Red Tape Act, Ease of Doing Business, strengthened Money Laundering Law, strengthened Office of Ombudsman law, the Anti-Corruption Month law, Government Procurement Act, GMRC law, Doktor Para sa Bayan law and Trabaho para sa Bayan law, among others.
For 2025 election, CIBAC will be again led by Congressman Bro. Eddie Villanueva as it lead nominee, with former CIBAC Representative Domeng Rivera and Atty. Cathy Valencia as the 2nd and 3rd nominees, respectively.
