When

Macarena Olona

gets up from her seat and takes the floor, everyone knows that the

chances of a hurricane

are high.

But this strength that the Vox

candidate

to

preside over the Andalusian Government

demonstrates in her interventions is not new in her life.

As a child

, she was "a piece of junk, she wouldn't stop.

She liked to sit with her grandfather to read the newspaper, and he would tell her about life. She was a very

good student and had many friends.

They had a chalet and she liked to bathe, play, run , climbing trees... Suddenly he would disappear; he was

with the dogs,

he liked to have many".

JAEN, TANGIER...

Who tells this to LOC is

Lucía Gámez López, the grandmother

from Jaén and on the mother's side of Macarena Olona who, at almost 90 years old, is proud of her granddaughter.

"She was very good. She loved being in the kitchen while I prepared the food, singing.

We instilled in her that she had to take care of her friends,

never fight, take care of her sister and her mother, who was always working" .

At the age of 18,

Toñi Choclán

, daughter of Lucía, married

Pablo Olona.

Very soon Macarena was born, and they always had her grandparents close to her: they took her

to school, they went to her children's festivals

...

When the marriage broke up and

the father left home,

Macarena was 13 years old.

"It was not a good time for her," she recalls.

Now, Lucía sees her granddaughter daily in the media.

"I thank God for seeing her so well, even though

they are doing so many things to her.

It already makes me happy, but at first I felt it, because politics deals a lot of blows. I want Spain to do well, and I know that

Macarena will come out ahead,

because He has strength, like his grandfather.

He was the one who taught his daughter Toñi the profession of

real estate agent.

The couple lived

in Tangier for 12 years,

and for work they ended up settling in Alicante, where Macarena was born.

"But

our blood and roots are from Andalusia."

Lucia remembers that when she got on the boat to Tangier, she cried.

Then she was very happy.

"Andalusia is my land, and Jaén is full stop. But I also

love Alicante very much.

I used to go to Jaén from time to time, but now it's hard for me, I go with a cane".

With her granddaughter she remembered when she went to the

Sanlúcar fair dressed as a flamenco.

For this reason, at the age of 2, Macarena already wore her first gypsy outfit.

She "liked her a lot, but she lived in Alicante, where she was born."

Olona usually spends long periods in Salobreña.

That is why she has registered there, and because

"she was chosen by Granada,

it seems normal to me."

"LET THEM JOIN THE PP"

If her granddaughter won the elections, she would ask her to

"remember the people from the villages.

I know she would help them. They work in the fields and don't earn enough to support their families."

Lucía knows that her granddaughter has been called an "immigrant."

"Very bad

. I was in Tangier and I never felt like an immigrant,

but rather a worker. We left because things here were bad.

They treated us very well.

A person who goes as an immigrant should go to work and behave well. What surprises me is that they come here and do the things they do. There is work here. But of course,

if they give them money without working...".

He reveals that at home

"we always voted for the Popular Party.

But when my granddaughter joined Vox, my son asked me who I was going to vote for. Well, the girl! And I tell everyone.

Let them get together with the PP,

it would seem wonderful to me. I am a friend of the PP, but a lover of my granddaughter".

And he does not forget

his great-grandson, Diego,

son of Macarena.

"The most beautiful thing in the world. I do tell her not to leave her alone too much. She sends me photos and tells me. Her son is the dream of her life. And I am the lioness, let's

see who messes with my grandchildren,

who no one touches them".
