In the slate for Lugud Fernandino councilors are John Susi, Reggie David, Taro Hizon, Alice Dumlao, Tina Lagman and Angel Wijangco. Lazatin said that San Fernando's sectors need all the necessary support to cushion the effects of the pandemic.

"I am asking Fernandino­s to unite with a governance that will bring unity and developmen­t further to the most vulnerable sectors of San Fernando," Lazatin said.
