HER passion and love for pageantry motivated Shane Ann S. Jereza to join the first Binibining Cebu.

Jereza, the official candidate of the municipality of Tudela, wants to promote its wonders through the people’s hospitality and harmonious living.

“Tudela is so abundant in natural and beautiful spots and which make my town a hidden paradise,” she told Cebu Daily News.

According to Jereza, Tudela’s former name was Tag-anito derived from their ancestors’ practice of worshipping spirits.

When Spanish friar named Ramon Alegria became the parish priest of the settlement, he changed the name Tag-anito to Tudela, in memory and honor of his hometown Tudela, in Spain.
