CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – Nothing makes Gov. Dennis “Delta” Pineda happier than seeing the efforts put in by his supporters through the handmade posters they display during his motorcades.
“Masaya po. Yung posters nila nagpapakita ng effort at pagmamahal nila sa akin at sa mga Kapampangan,” the 48-year-old governor shared on Easter Sunday.
Doing motorcades can be tiresome, Pineda said, but the sight of the posters takes all the exhaustion away.
He cited all the handmade posters he saw by the roadside during his motorcades and musical concerts in Lubao, Guagua, Floridablanca, Mabalacat City Sasmuan, City of San Fernando, Arayat, Candaba, Masantol, San Luis, Apalit and Minalin since the start of the local election campaign last March 25.
These handmade posters, mostly made of cartolina, reused tarpaulin and cartons, stand out among the usual plastic posters showing him, his mother, Vice Gov. Lilia Pineda, Kambilan partymates or national candidates.
Often, colored markers are used to write the messages. The posters by a group called “Super Moms” in Minalin scribbled the words “We love you” and the governor’s name in crayons.
Supporters wrote “Sure! Sure!” in reference to the chorus of the governor’s campaign jingle.
Others profess being “Solid” behind him. In Barangay San Juan in Apalit, they greeted him with heart signs and the promise: “No. 1 sa puso namin.” A poster held by a man screamed: “Banya! Banya” or a call to a second win.
Amazed at the expression of support, the governor took home some as mementos. “Nakaka-inspire po,” he said.
