[SPECIAL REPORT] Mindanao 2022 to 2025: fat and obese dynasties dominate political landscape
DAVAO CITY – Across Mindanao’s 27 provinces, 33 cities and 60 congressional districts, it was business as usual in the first full week of the “new” administration on July4 to 8. The first week simply marked the start of another three-year term for the governor, city mayor, congressional representative or their wives, husbands, daughters, sons, brothers, sisters, mothers or fathers.
Dr. Ronald Mendoza, Dean of the Ateneo de Manila University’s School of Government, defines political dynasty as “a family that has successfully retained political power by maintaining control over one or several elective positions over successive generations.”Thin dynasties, he said, refer to those whose members succeed each other in office while fat dynasties refer to those that have more than two clan members simultaneously holding public posts.
Altogether, the Dimaporos have been representing the second district for nine of 12 terms from 1987 to 2025 and the first district for five terms from 2010 to 2025. After Ali won the congressional seat in 1965, the vice governor, Arsenio Quibranza, a Christian settler from Cebu, succeeded him as Governor. Quibranza, who was appointed mayor of Tubod town in 1949 and later elected and re-elected to the same post, won the gubernatorial race in 1971 and again in 1980 and ruled until the Marcos dictatorship was toppled by People Power in 1986 and OICs were appointed in their stead.
