Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto is seeking a second term as he files his Certificate of Candidacy (COC) today, October 1, for the 2022 local and national elections.
“Nag-file na po ako kaagad ng COC para tapos na, di naman kailangan ng drama at suspense. Ang hiling ko lang sa inyo, bigyan ninyo ako ng mga kasanggang MAPAGKAKATIWALAAN natin. Yung hindi puwesto o pera ang habol, kundi yung magiging katuwang ko para paigtingin pa ang mga reporma’t serbisyo ng pamahalaan,” he stated on a Facebook post earlier this morning.
In the 2019 mayoralty race, Sotto ended the decades-long rule of the Eusebio clan in Pasig City. He was also recognized by President Biden’s administration as one of the 12 anti-corruption champions.
His running mate for the 2022 election is Former Rep. Robert “Dodot” Jaworksi Jr. who has also filed his COC this morning.
Meanwhile, Sotto’s parents, Actor Vic Sotto and Coney Reyes, were spotted in the Pasig City COMELEC Office to show support to their son when he filed his COC.
