The Makatizens United Party (MKTZNU) is a Makati-based local political organization in the Philippines. MKTZNU was led and founded by former Makati Mayor Abigail Binay.
History The party was formed in 2021, ahead of the 2022 elections, wherein its leader, then-Makati Mayor Abby Binay, was running for her third and final consecutive term. She previously ran in 2019 under the United Nationalist Alliance.
In the elections, almost the whole slate won, as they only lost 1 seat in the council in the elections in 2nd district.
For the 2025 elections, Abby Binay joined Nationalist People's Coalition, and was selected to the Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas senatorial slate of President Bongbong Marcos. Her husband and 2nd district congressman Luis Campos ran to replace her position as mayor, with 1st district congressman and former vice mayor Kid Peña as his running mate. Incumbent Vice Mayor Monique Lagdameo ran for her previous position, the 1st district congressional seat to replace Peña, while Councilor Dennis Almario ran to replace Campos' position at the 2nd district. While Peña, Lagdameo, Almario, and 9 out of 16 candidates for councilor won the election, Campos lost to Nancy Binay, Abby's sister who ran under the United Nationalist Alliance.
