Manila Mayor Honey Lacuna congratulated all the winners in the recently-concluded Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections in the city, with a call for them to fulfill their mandate efficiently and wholeheartedly.

She also urged them to extend a hand of unity to their erstwhile rivals instead of using their victory to get back at their political foes.

On the other hand, the mayor also called on those who did not make it to be a good sport, accept the decision of the voters and support their new barangay leaders.

Stressing that politics should already be set aside, Lacuna called on all residents of Manila to move on and jointly work toward a better and more progressive city for their very own benefit.
