Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto (second from right), flanked by his parents Connie Reyes and Vic Sotto, files his certificate of candidacy (CoC) for a second term as mayor, at the local Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Pasig City Friday (October 1).
The 32-year-old Sotto made headlines in 2019 after toppling the Eusebio political clan that has ruled Pasig for years. He has immediately gained a following inside and outside Pasig City due to his aspirational brand of politics and his government reforms.
