Estrella shares a photo with the two on her Facebook captioned, \u201c<\/span>Before going to school with Cavite Vice Governor Jolo Revilla and San Juan La Union Councilor Migz Magsaysay. Thankful for this opportunity.\u201d<\/span> All three politicians have filed their Certificates of Candidacy (COC) for the May 2019 elections last October.<\/span><\/p>\n
