In his post, Gardo explained why he holds Vico in such high regard. He began, "kaya ako bilib kay mayor vico ,, maganda ang upbringing ,, hindi ko sya nakitaan ng pagpapasiklab at papormaporma at yabang ,, di mo naman kailangan gawin yan kung ang layunin mo ay pagsisilbi sa bayan ,, babango ba ang pangalan mo kapag naka PATEK PHILIPPE ka ? tataas ba ang integridad mo kung naka ROLLS ROYCE ka ??"
The actor went on to emphasize that true leadership is not about flaunting wealth or power but about genuine service to the people.

Vico Sotto, whose full name is Victor Ma. Regis "Vico" Nubla Sotto, was born June 17, 1989 and is a Filipino politician serving as the mayor of Pasig. He joined the Aksyon Demokratiko party and was elected mayor of Pasig in 2019 and was re-elected in 2022. He was re-elected for his third consecutive term at the 2025 elections. His parents are actor-comedian-host Vic Sotto and actress Coney Reyes, with both of them supporting their son in his political endeavors.
As previously reported by KAMI, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto announced he will not run for any political position in the 2028 elections during his inaugural address. He said the early declaration frees him and allows him to focus fully on doing what he believes is right during his final term. Vico is now serving his third and final consecutive term as mayor, the maximum allowed by the Constitution. He reaffirmed his commitment to pursue reforms and policies for Pasig regardless of political consequences or popularity.
Months ago, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto took his oath for a third and final term on June 30. His celebrity parents, Vic Sotto and Coney Reyes, were present during the oathtaking ceremony that took place at South Drive, Bridgetowne, Barangay Rosario, Pasig City. The veteran actress later took to social media to share a couple of posts containing photos from the ceremony. The veteran actress also penned a short but earnest prayer for her son.
