Farid Rentería seeks Morena municipal leadership in Playa del Carmen

Farid Rentería has officially registered as a candidate for the Municipal Coordination of the Committees for the Defense of the Transformation and National Sovereignty within the Morena party in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo.

Rentería, who previously served as the state director for the federal social program ‘Jóvenes Construyendo el Futuro’ until June 2026, has been conducting community tours and informative assemblies to engage directly with citizens. His campaign emphasizes territorial organization and the principles of the ‘Cuarta Transformación’ through direct dialogue with local families.

However, his political aspirations have also drawn scrutiny. Local media reports have raised questions regarding his management of the federal social program, his personal assets, and his potential business ties and relationships with political figures. His background also includes previous work in the Quintana Roo hotel sector, though specific details regarding his tenure there remain unclear.
