Frasco couple, Abellanosa get INC endorsement

THE influential Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) has once again endorsed the reelection bid of Cebu Fifth District Rep. Vincent Franco “Duke” Frasco.

Frasco said this is the sixth election the INC has endorsed him since 2007 when he first ran for mayor of Liloan, Cebu.

Frasco thanked the INC under the leadership of Ka Eduardo Manalo for the consistent support.

“I am truly grateful that Iglesia’s consistent endorsement over the years affirms the efforts we have made towards ensuring progress for our district and a better life for our people,” said Frasco.

Also, the INC has endorsed the reelection bid of Frasco’s wife, Liloan Mayor Christina Frasco, and her running mate, Councilor Aljew Frasco, for vice mayor.

Mayor Frasco said all her eight councilors under One Cebu Party are also endorsed by the INC.

“I am deeply grateful to the leadership and members of Iglesia ni Cristo for their consistent endorsement and support since I first ran for mayor in 2016,” Mayor Frasco said. “As I run for my third and last term as mayor of the Municipality of Liloan, I can honestly say that I have given this nothing less than my everything, even and especially in the most difficult times. With your support, I will continue to give this my all for the love of Liloan and all Liloanons!”

The INC has also endorsed the candidacy of Cebu City South District congressional candidate BG Rodrigo Abellanosa.

On his Facebook page Thursday, Abellanosa, son of incumbent Cebu City Rep. Rodrigo Abellanosa, thanked the INC, particularly its executive minister Manalo, for endorsing him.
