CEBU CITY, Philippines – A public school teacher from Boljoon town got the dream car her family has always wanted.
Emelita Pelonio became the lucky winner of a brand new pickup truck during the Grand Draw of the Pasigarbo sa Sugbo 2022 online voting raffle.
The Cebu Provincial Government on Monday, September 12, randomly picked 50 voters, including Pelonio, who managed to cast their votes in all five segments of the Pasigarbo festival.
Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia, together with other Capitol officials, personally called Pelonio via Messenger to deliver the good news to her.
“Ang nidaog karong gabhi-una sa usa ka brand new Toyota Hilux . . . way lain kon dili ang usa nga ang pangalan Emelita Pelonio,” Garcia said.
Pelonio is a teacher at El Pardo National High School in Barangay El Pardo, Boljoon.
“Salamat gyud kaayo sa Patrocinio de Maria nga gihatag pod niya namo ang brand new nga hilux nga pangandoy gyud na namo,” said Pelonio.
The grand draw was broadcasted live through Sugbo News, the province’s media arm.
Aside from a pick up truck, the Capitol also raffled off five, 55-inch smart televisions (TV), 10 laptops, 14 tablets, and 20 smartphones.
