Pitter Enrique Valderrama Peña (born 14 April 1988) is a Peruvian politician and journalist. A member of the Peruvian Aprista Party (APRA), he is currently a member of the party's National Political Commission since July 2021.

As a journalist, he collaborates as a columnist for Expreso.[1] He is also the founder of the political affairs portal Punto de Encuentro.[2]

Political career

[edit]

Valderrama is a member of the Peruvian Aprista Party since 2010.[3] He was chosen to run for the Lima Metropolitan Council in the 2010 municipal election, but the party's list with Carlos Roca as mayoral nominee was ultimately withdrawn.[4]

From 2011 to 2012, Valderrama served as General Secretary of the Aprista University Command at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, where he studied law at the time.[5]

On 21 July 2021, Valderrama was appointed directly by party leader César Trelles as a member of the National Political Commission chaired by former congressman Mauricio Mulder. He is considered a strong contender for the leadership of the APRA within an influx of young leaders for the party's renewal.[6][7]
