Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) chief Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa on Friday filed his certificate of candidacy for his senatorial run in the 2019 elections.

"I am serious in running for the Senate," said Dela Rosa, who headed the Philippine National Police (PNP) before his appointment to BuCor.

Dela Rosa said his campaign slogan will be "Itaga mo sa bato."

Dela Rosa told GMA News Online in a earlier interview that in the event that he wins a Senate seat, he will push for legislation that will strengthen law enforcement such as requiring the registration of mobile phone owners.

The Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Laban (PDP-Laban) on Thursday denied that Filipino music icon Freddie Aguilar is part of their senatorial lineup.

"Freddie Aguilar is not a candidate for senator nor any other elective position of the PDP-Laban. We did not issue any Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance (CONA) from the party," said Ron Monsayac, head of PDP-Laban's public information, in a text message to GMA News' Sandra Aguinaldo.

"Although he's free to continue his plans to run for Senator, he is not part of the PDP-Laban slate," Monsayac added.

Earlier, Aguilar filed his certificate of candidacy (COC) before the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Manila, saying that he will run under the PDP-Laban.

Comelec spokesman James Jimenez said the issue would still be discussed by the poll body's officials.

"I think 'yung policy sa CONA, nakacontain na 'yan sa reso natin, we'll give you copies. This will come up for decision by higher authorities kasi merong may claim, may counter-claim, kailangan pagbanggain," Jimenez said. — Anna Felicia Bajo/MDM, GMA News

The filing of certificate of candidacy (COC) for the 2019 polls will not be extended beyond October 17, Commission on Elections (Comelec) chairman Sheriff Abbas said Friday.

“No, we won’t allow [an] extension,” Abbas said at a press conference.

The Comelec has initially scheduled the filing of candidacy from October 1 to 5, but it was moved to October 11 to 12 and October 11 to 17 to give Congress enough time to focus on deliberations on the proposed P3.75 trillion budget for 2019.
