Former San Beda classmate and roommate of Pres. Rody Duterte, Atty. Rafael Buencamino revealed the possible reasons in a detailed statement why well-known musician and Pro-Liberal Party activist Jim Paredes hold grudges against the former Mayor of Davao City.
Lawyer-businessman Atty. Rafael Buencamino revealed in an interview with Radyo Agon on Friday, the musician Jaime Ramon "Jim" Paredes hated and disliked Pres. Duterte since their college days.
The veteran lawyer stated that the Paredes-Duterte feud started when Jim Paredes lost to former Law student Rody Duterte in an inter-college Extemporaneous Speaking contest sometime in 1971 - Pres. Duterte's last years in San Beda College.
Atty. Buencamino was quoted as saying "Natalo siya (Paredes) sa speech contest, freshman siya noon sa Ateneo, medyo mataas and pride kaya hindi natanggap ang pagkatalo. Dahil aktibista sila, hinimok niya si Rody na sumali sa pagiging aktibista, ngunit tumindi ang pagka-insulto niya nang tumanggi si Rody," Buencamino said.
Atty. Buencamino added further that the anger of Jim Paredes was at peaked when the former courted one of Duterte's female classmates. Paredes thought that Rody Duterte was speaking badly about him that's why the girl rejected him.
"Akala niya kasi sinisiraan namin siya kung kaya't nabasted siya," Buencamino added. Atty. Buencamino also noted that "I think Paredes' life is full of failures and disappointments in politics that's why he is jealous especially to the people who beat him earlier. Hindi niya rin matanggap noon na naging Mayor si Rody, lalo pa ngayong naging Presidente. E sya natalo nong tumakbong Brgy. Kapitan sa kanila," Buencamino added.
The veteran singer and musician who is also known as a staunch critic of Pres. Duterte made headlines when he engaged in a heated confrontation with the members of the Duterte Youth who staged a silent protest at the EDSA Shrine opposite the Liberal Party's initiated EDSA 31 anniversary rally.
