June 9, 2025, Cagayan de Oro City_Congressman Yevgeny Vincente "Bambi" Emano of Misamis Oriental's 2nd District and Padayon Pilipino leader, vehemently denied his party's involvement in alleged vote buying in this city's 2nd District last May.

Representative Emano was referring to allegations that his political party allegedly gave more than a million pesos to Gusa Barangay Captain Marlo Tabac to allegedly buy votes.

Emano said that since Tabac was then the campaign manager of another camp, the alleged vote buying incident could have emanated from this political group.

Cong. Bambi was present in Monday's ceremony wherein incumbent and councilor elect Yvy Emano took her oath of office as administered by Punong Barangay Marlo Tabac. The incident fueled speculations that Tabac has allegedly changed political colors.
