Jennica Garcia, a Filipina actress known for her sincerity both on and off screen, recently expressed deep admiration for Luis Manzano in a heartfelt message shared on her Instagram.

The post came after Jessy Mendiola, Luis' wife, reshared a set of photos from her husband's page with the caption: "Bawat salita na binitawan ay kayang panindigan, manalo man o hindi."

Following this news, Jessy's words struck a deep chord with Jennica, prompting her to reflect on the kind of character Luis displayed even after facing defeat in the political arena this year.

"It's so beautiful to witness someone who ran for office, lost, but still remained firm and true to the promises he made. Honestly, he didn't have to, right?" Jennica wrote, highlighting Luis' integrity.

She pointed out that despite not securing the position, Luis never turned his back on the people: "He wasn't able to secure the position he aimed for, and he could've easily walked away from the responsibilities that come with public service... but that wasn't the case for Kuya Luis Manzano."

Jennica concluded her heartfelt message with much sincere admiration for Luis' heart, saying: "I've always admired Kuya Lu. Not for his talent (which is a given) but for his HEART to SERVE and his desire to be a BLESSING to others. May the Lord always keep you, Kuya. We love you!"

Her touching words resonated with many, offering a powerful reminder that public service is defined not just by the titles they have, but by genuine commitment to serve others genuinely.
