Vico Sotto received support from Vic Sotto and Coney Reyes
Veteran showbiz personalities Vic Sotto and Coney Reyes shared their thoughts on the re-election bid of their son Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto.
Mayor Vico is one of the young bloods in the political scene in the Philippines. Aside from being the son of two of the most popular celebrities in the country, he is also known for bringing changes to Pasig City.
He received admiration not just from his constituents but also from people in other cities for the programs he was doing for Pasiguenos. The young Mayor is aspiring to have his third term in the 2025 elections.
Mayor Vico Sotto was accompanied by his parents, Vic Sotto and Coney Reyes when he filed his certificate of candidacy for mayor of Pasig City.
Based on the article in ABS-CBN, Vic, and Coney were asked if they were worried about the recent issue about their son. “‘Yung mga style na bulok hindi na uubra dito sa Pasig ‘yun,” Vic said, adding that people in Pasig know what is right or wrong.
He also said that this old style of politics does not work in Pasig and that people are now more intelligent. For Coney, his son has peace amid the recent issue. She is also confident that Mayor Vico knows what he is doing.
When asked about their advice to their son, Vic Sotto said, “Keep up the good work, he is doing a good job. I’m proud of him,” the Eat Bulaga host said.
Mayor Vico Sotto officially entered politics when he ran and won as councilor in Pasig in 2016. Three years later, he bravely became the opponent of a strong political figure in Pasig. He ran against former Mayor Bobby Eusebio whose family has been leading the political scene in the city for many years. In 2020, Mayor Vico ran for his second term and once again, he won.
