Diego Guerra Burbano urged to run for mayor of Pasto
Businessman Diego Guerra Burbano, a civil engineer with a master’s in business administration, is being urged by various political sectors and local supporters to become the mayoral candidate for Pasto, the capital of Colombia’s Nariño Department, ahead of next year’s regional elections. He has previously managed the firm Avante, supervising major development projects, and now works in private construction, creating jobs for hundreds of families. Guerra said he will decide after consulting friends and family, with the electoral calendar set to begin in three months.
The request for his candidacy reflects growing local interest in a candidate with private‑sector experience and a record of city‑level infrastructure work.
