Overview

• Protesters in Huancayo shouted that César Acuña is the same as President Dina Boluarte and threw eggs and bottles at his delegation near the Regional Government of Junín.
• Acuña held a low‑turnout party march on the city’s Calle Real and presented APP precandidates for the 2026 regional and municipal races in Plaza Huamanmarca.
• In Lima, thousands marched calling on Congress to repeal the pension reform promoted as a system modernization.
• The reform would increase mandatory contributions for independent workers from 2% starting in 2028 to 5% by 2034, a change critics say burdens informal and young workers.
• Separately, the JEE of Chiclayo ruled that Acuña violated electoral neutrality by taking part in a partisan event in Piura, a decision he has appealed to the JNE.
