Beyond awarding over 35,000 college scholarships, one of the most enduring legacies of the Nograles political clan in Davao City is the massive infrastructure development they have championed in the first district over the years.

The late Prospero “Boy” Nograles, the first House Speaker from Mindanao and father of Davao City mayoralty candidate Atty. Karlo Nograles, made infrastructure projects a top priority when he served as congressman of the first district decades ago.

Following his term, Karlo Nograles took the helm and continued his father’s infrastructure-driven leadership, ensuring that the district’s development remained progressive and consistent.

Building a Stronger First District

It is widely recognized that most of the gymnasiums in Davao City’s first district were built through the efforts of the Nograles family. But their contributions extend far beyond sports and recreational facilities.

Under their leadership, the district has seen significant improvements in:

✔ Pathways – ensuring safer and more accessible walkways for residents.
✔ Road Networks – enhancing connectivity across communities.
✔ Bridges – linking vital areas to boost trade and mobility.

A Vision for More Development

If Atty. Karlo Nograles secures victory in the upcoming May elections, he has vowed to expand infrastructure projects across the 182 barangays of Davao City. His goal is to further modernize and improve public facilities, ensuring that the city’s infrastructure keeps pace with its rapid growth and the needs of its people.

The Nograles brand of leadership has long been rooted in development, accessibility, and progress—a legacy that Atty. Karlo Nograles aims to carry forward for Davao City’s future.
