Senatorial candidate Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino in assessing his former colleague's performance and track records in public service. Aquino said that he personally knows Lobregat when they were colleagues in the House of Representatives as a batch for neophyte congressmen. Aquino said that Celso will not become the "Most Outstanding Congressman" of the country if he was not one of the top caliber lawmakers during their time. With Aquino, Lobregat was one of the top caliber congressmen like Imee Marcos, Chiz Escudero, Allan Peter Cayetano, Rodrigo Duterte and other oppositionists. "Celso was.very charismatic to the city of Zamboanga during his term in Congress. Everyone admired him during his rebuttal and argument in opposing the inclusion of Zamboanga City from the expanded ARMM region in Mindanao. He defended his position for ten hours till the next day of the session, ganun katindi si Celso," Aquino said. Aquino said he has learned that Celso continues his good performance until today as a mayor. "You can see Celso's immediate response in bombings, conflagrations, floods, and other forms of man made and natural disasters He offers help instantly and produces needed resources for his people the soonest possible time," Aquino said. "Celso is a sure winner, I am proud of him, ,1 wish the country will have more leaders like him who is not a typical politician but a real public servant," Aquino said. — Bhong Simbajon
