Nationalist People’s Coalition ready to take in Villanueva

TECHNICAL Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) Director General Joel Villanueva, who is having a “falling out” with some members of the administration Liberal Party (LP), may eventually run under the banner of the Nationalist People’s Coalition (NPC), whose officials are egging Sen. Grace Poe to run for president next year.

Villanueva, the son of evangelist and Jesus Is Lord chief pastor Eddie Villanueva, confirmed to The Manila Times that NPC members have pledged their support for his senatorial bid.
