“So ano po ang ibig sabihin nito? Para po tayo sa bayan natin. Kung kasama po natin lahat ng kapitan, kasama po natin lahat ng barangay officials majority hindi naman po lahat paano po tayo matatalo?”
Celeste told an army of candidates running for the provincial board, mayoralty, vice mayoralty, and members of the town council applauding at the well manicured rolling lawn of the Cojuangcos in Barangay Labayug in Sison, Pangasinan.
Celeste said that he and his older brother Jesus or Boying, the first district congressman, crowed that nine out of 10 mayors in their district support Cojuangco and Macanlalay’s bid.
He said the mayor of Infanta should be supporting Cojuangco but he and his brother made a promised that the son of the late Mayor Ruperto Martinez, who was assassinated in December 2012, would be their candidate for the mayoralty in 2016”.
“Sa amin po sa primero distrito, kung paano ang kampanya namin doon, lagi po kaming nag uusap sa mga mayors, vice mayors, sa mga barangay kapitan, lagi po naming nilalaban hindi lang iyong sarili namin siyempre unang ilalaban po natin iyong ating governor, vice governor, mga congressmen at provincial boards kaya ito pong labanan na ito ako po ay tiwalang tiwala kung tutulungan po natin ang liderato ni Governor Mark, wala pong dahilan na siya pa ay matalo!" he stressed.
