The wall built by Mang Armando from Bulakan gained significant popularity when it featured the words “bawal Umihi Dito Pero si Ivana Alawi Pwede.” It garnered a massive reach and shares on Facebook, eventually catching the attention of Ivana Alawi herself. She visited the wall and, to everyone’s surprise, Mang Armando, the one who wrote the message on the wall, was there. He could hardly believe that Ivana Alawi had come in person.
It’s also quite intriguing to think about where Mang Armando got the idea to write such a message on the wall. Typically, the “Bawal Umihi Dito” sign is seen on walls along pathways, often serving as makeshift urinals, especially for men. However, Mang Armando’s creative thinking turned it into a sensational message that grabbed the attention of many, especially on social media. He had been writing this message for over two years, but it only became viral after Ivana Alawi noticed it. She even gave Mang Armando 50,000 pesos, leaving him nearly speechless.
Even Boss Toyo from Pinoy Pawnstars noticed it and considered buying the wall.
Perhaps this inspired another netizen to write a similar message in the hope of getting noticed by a famous vlogger and content creator like Toni Fowler. Toni is also well-known in the vlogging and content creation scene, just like Ivana Alawi. In some of her videos, she can be seen giving money and livelihood opportunities to her followers. Will Toni notice this as well, considering that the wall now has over 1 million reactions, 40k comments, and 8.6k shares? Different netizens have various reactions and responses to this post.
