UniTeam was an electoral alliance in the Philippines formed to support the candidacies of Bongbong Marcos and Sara Duterte in the 2022 presidential and vice-presidential elections and their allies in the 2022 Philippine general election.[5][6][7][8] The alliance was formalized on November 29, 2021, with Senator Imee Marcos coining the name UniTeam.[9]

UniTeam as an electoral alliance was dissolved shortly after the landslide wins of both candidates in the 2022 national elections. The term "UniTeam" continued to be used to refer to the relationship between the president and vice-president, until relations broke down between the two after Duterte's resignation from the Marcos cabinet in 2024.[10]

Aftermath

It was clarified that the UniTeam was only made for the purpose of the 2022 election,[23] and no formal meeting has been held among its members as an alliance since then.[24]

UniTeam's Lakas-CMD formed the majority of the House of Representative's 19th Congress. This was the first time a vice president's party leads the lower house, although Marcos' Partido Federal ng Pilipinas is part of the coalition.[25] Out of the twelve upcoming members of the 24-seat Senate, only Risa Hontiveros formed part of the opposition.[26]

Vice President Sara Duterte was appointed as Marcos' first Secretary of Education after they both took office in mid-2022.[27] Although she preferred to be Secretary of Defense[28] Over the next two years, Duterte's relationship with Marcos' allies detoriated, particularly with House Speaker Martin Romualdez and Marcos' wife and first lady Liza Araneta.[27] She resigned in May 2023 from Lakas–CMD where she served as chairperson. Lakas is part of the ruling coalition.[29][30]

In January 2024, President Marcos insisted that the UniTeam is still "vibrant", referring to his working relationship with his deputy.[31]

Duterte tendered resignation from her position as education secretary in June 2024.[32] When asked about her friendship with Marcos in September 2024, she said they were never friends and merely running mates in the 2022 elections.[33] Marcos responded expressing he was "deceived" about their supposed friendship.[34] In October 2024, she detailed her fallout with Marcos, who she says "does not know how to be president".[35][36]
