Antonio Trillanes IV Dares Dares Palace To Appoint Leni Robredo As Head of IATF

LENI ROBREDO – Former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV dared the Palace to appoint Vice President Leni Robredo to lead COVID-19 Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF).

On Wednesday, Palace spokesman Harry Roque advised Vice President Leni Robredo that she should offer solutions instead of criticizing the alleged poor efforts in bringing the stranded individuals to their homes amid the lockdown. He said, “I just wish the Vice President could actually offer solutions.”

Marawi civic leader Samira Gutoc reacted following Roque’s statement about Robredo.  He said “Mars, wag mo hintaying malaman ni VP Leni na kayo ang tunay na problema. Baka kayo mismo, solusyunan niya rin. Biro lang Mars! Peace!”

According to the report, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s staunchest critic slammed the Presidential spokesman for saying that Leni Robredo should give a solution rather than criticizing the government’s COVID-19 efforts. He asked if Roque was just turning blind eye to Robredo’s initiative amid the pandemic.

“Bulag ba o nagbubulag-bulagan itong si Roque sa mga nagawa at kasalukuyang ginagawang pagtulong ng Bise Presidente sa ating mga kababayan sa harap ng pandemyang ito?”

“Kung ang amo ni Roque na si Duterte ay patulog-tulog, si Vice President Leni ay halos wala nang pahinga sa paghahanap ng mga paraan kung paano makatutulong sa mga Pilipino,” Trillanes said.
