sept 12, 2014

PBB All-In Season’s Top 2 Maris Racal returned home Tuesday in Tagum City and she was profusely welcomed back by the very people who first voted, supported and loved her.

She was mobbed, selfied and cheered by ordinary folks, city and provincial officials as she barnstormed to thank them in winning in the popular ABS-CBN show.

Maris visited the offices of the Governor Rodolfo del Rosario, Vice Governor Victorio “Baby” Suaybaguio, Jr. and of some board members while Capitol employees briefly stopped working to see, cheer and have selfies with their newest idol.

She also put the City Hall in merry frenzy as she visited the offices of Mayor Allan Rellon and others.

Her schoolmates were so proud of her at St. Mary’s College where she entertained them with three songs.

People along the city’s streets cheered her with shouts of joy as she waived, smiled and made return gestures to them on motorcade.

“She’s Top 1 for us Tagumenyos than Daniel Matsunaga,” Jonelbin Larawan, a disc jockey.

Maris is gearing up to be a Kapamilya talent and an actress in Manila to watch and behold by the Tagumenyos and the rest of the country. (Rural Urban News/Cha Monforte)
