The Partido Federal ng Pilipinas, a political party that fielded President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. as its standard-bearer in the 2022 local and national elections, on Thursday elected its new set of officers to fill up the so-called "leadership vacuum."

The term of office of the executive officers of the PFP has already expired, hence, a leadership vacuum.

During the group's general assembly at the Linden Suites in Pasig City, the PFP elected Leandro Verceles Jr. as president of the party. He is a three-term governor of Catanduanes and erstwhile congressman of the province.

President Marcos Jr. was chosen as national chairman of the party.

Meanwhile, Antonio Lagdameo Jr. has been elected as the party's vice-president, while former Capas, Tarlac Mayor Jose Antonio Rodriguez Jr. was chosen as secretary-general of the group.

Businessman Antonio Tony Marfori has been elected again as the party's national treasurer.

The new PFP national president vowed that the new leadership of the party will push for the political agenda in line with the socio-economic agenda of PBBM.

Verceles stressed that the PFP membership is open to all Filipinos, irrespective of their economic status in life.

He also urged all of those who are planning to leave the party to reconsider and see for themselves first the plans and programs of the new PFP leadership for their own welfare and benefit.

Meanwhile, Reynaldo Tamayo Jr. and Tomas Lantion are no longer members of the new PFP due to the expiration of their term of office and the "loss of confidence" as unanimously voted upon by the PFP officers and members.
