Unlocking the mission
You will have the chance to start this operation while completing the main missions in Valle De Oro. You need to wait until the quest icon appears in Camp Maximas (the guerrilla hideout) indicating the opportunity to talk to Bicho.
After talking to Bicho, you have to go to Segunda town (you can also use fast travel to get there), where you will initially have to complete 2 of the mission objectives (you can tackle them in any order).
Vandalize Maria's propaganda billboards
Start traveling around the city (on foot or by car). It's a good idea to holster your weapon to avoid alarming any enemies along the way.
Look around for Maria's billboards - an example is shown in the screenshot above.
You need to walk up to each billboard and hold down the interaction button to vandalize it. You have to destroy 6 billboards with this method.
At least one billboard will require you to climb to the roof of a building, though it shouldn't be too complicated - just look around for higher ledges or crates to climb on.
Plant the leaflet bombs
During this mission objective, you need to search for shiny trash cans. By interacting with them, you will place the leaflets inside. You need to prepare 3 leaflet bombs.
Hijack Maria's banners
To complete this mission objective, you will need to climb the crane in the town. You will have to climb more ladders to achieve this.
An enemy helicopter may be flying around the area. You can either focus on completing the mission, wait for it to leave the area, or use a launcher/the Volta supremo to destroy it.
Start carefully walking up the crane boom to reach the next banners. You will have to hold down the interact button next to each banner to swap it out.
Meet Bicho
Once you've sabotaged all the interactive banners, it's best to jump off the crane and use the wingsuit to glide towards the location where you're supposed to meet up with Bicho. He is waiting at the gas station, but if you are currently being chased by enemies, you will need to lose them first. A cut-scene depicting Maria's failed speech will play and the operation will be complete.
