Sylvia Sanchez, the mother of actor and re-elected congressman Arjo Atayde, shared on Instagram a congratulatory message for her son.

It can be recalled that the actor-turned-politician Juan Carlos “Arjo” Atayde has successfully secured his re-election as the Congressman of the First District of Quezon City.

His mother, veteran actress Sylvia, then took to social media to express her elation and gratitude to the public for their continued support.

In her Instagram post, Sylvia conveyed her joy and acknowledged the challenges faced during the campaign.”Pilit pinabagsak pero hindi kinaya!!” (They tried to bring him down, but they couldn't!) she wrote.

“Ang nanatiling CONGRESSMAN ng Distrito Uno Quezon City CONGRESSMAN JUAN CARLOS ARJO ATAYDE.” (The continuing Congressman of the First District of Quezon City CONGRESSMAN JUAN CARLOS ARJO ATAYDE.)

The veteran actress then extended her heartfelt thanks to those who had consistently supported her son and to the new supporters who had joined their cause. “Maraming maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat,” (Thank you very much to all of you) she said.

“Congratulations nak!!!” (Congratulations son!!!)

The comments section of Sylvia’s post was filled with congratulatory messages and expressions of support. Many users praised Arjo’s work and dedication to his constituents.

One commenter, viveikaravanes, noted the “matibay ang resibo ng gawa at napatunayan” (strong receipts of work and proven results), suggesting that Arjo’s track record contributed to his re-election.

Sanchez responded by thanking viveikaravanes for their unwavering support during the campaign.

Other commenters, including fellow celebrities and supporters, echoed the sentiments of congratulations and admiration for Arjo’s victory.

However, some comments also raised concerns and allegations. One user, yhenmcm, mentioned having read numerous negative comments about the re-elected congressman, specifically alleging his involvement in cockfighting.

Sylvia responded by inviting the user to visit Arjo’s headquarters to get to know him personally and form their own opinion.

Another user, cii_ky14, asked about allegations of vote buying, and that Sylvia herself distributed the money. No response from Sylvia Sanchez was seen regarding this comment.

Despite these concerns, the overall tone of the comments section was celebratory, with many expressing their continued support for Arjo’s work in Congress. Several commenters highlighted the re-elected congressman’s dedication to providing medical assistance to his constituents.

Arjo’s re-election signifies the continued trust and confidence of the residents of Quezon City’s First District in his leadership.

His campaign focused on continuing his established programs and projects, and his supporters emphasized his accessibility and responsiveness to their needs.

The re-election of Arjo has generated a wide range of reactions, reflecting the diverse opinions within the community.

While his supporters celebrate his victory and commend his work, others have raised concerns and called for accountability.

The discussions surrounding his re-election highlight the importance of transparency and open communication between elected officials and their constituents.

Arjo Atayde is one of the most versatile actors in the industry. Previously, he won Best Actor at the 2020 Asian Academy Creative Awards for his role in “Bagman.” He is also the son of veteran actress Sylvia Sanchez and the husband of Kapuso actress Maine Mendoza.

Arjo won a fresh mandate and second term as representative of the First District of Quezon City. Official results confirm Atayde's re-election, securing 69,951 votes and defeating his political rivals. Known for his acting career, including an Asian Academy Creative Award, Atayde balances his political role with ongoing projects like the ABS-CBN series “Cattleya Killer.” During the campaign, Arjo emphasized his commitment to finishing projects started in his first term, particularly flood control initiatives in Quezon City.

Meanwhile, in a previous post, Arjo and his wife Maine Mendoza's roller coaster ride in South Korea went viral for their hilariously opposite reactions. Arjo was seen screaming throughout the ride, while Maine remained calm and almost uninterested. The video quickly made rounds online, with fans praising Maine’s composure and poking fun at Arjo’s dramatic response. Arjo’s sister joined the fun by commenting, “OA and nonchalant literally,” perfectly summing up the couple’s viral moment.
