EXCLUSIVE: Manang Mani Feature on Mel & Joey

On a plank or open field, in combat or cruel martyrdom,
If the home or country asks, it’s all the same–it matters not.
Like the Oblation, whose creation was inspired by the second verse of Jose Rizal’s Mi Ultimo Adios, Lolita “Manang Mani” Lazaro befits the status of a uniquely UP Baguio icon. Manang Mani is a hero and an inspiration. Her achievements are poignant reminders to us all that with hard work and generosity, we could always achieve our goals.
