Robredo Remains Unfazed Of Duterte Threat To Make Presidential Run A “Nightmare”
ROBREDO UNFAZED – Previously, President Rodrigo Duterte warned Vice President Leni Robredo that he would make her presidential campaign a “nightmare”.
Last year, during one of Duterte’s weekly televised public addresses, he threatened: “Sige subukan mo. Matagal na ako maraming gusto sabihin sayo. Ireserba ko. When you start your campaign pag magtakbo ka ng presidente, waswasan kita nang husto. This is your nightmare“.
Duterte’s rant came after Robredo criticized him for his absence amid the onslaught of Typhoon Ulysses. “Next time, do not make a mistake or I’ll be forced to insult you because you are playing too much. Nagpapa-beauty ka. It’s not the time for you“, added the President.
But, a year and a presidential candidacy later, Robredo said that Duterte’s threats aren’t part of her problems. Instead, Robredo emphasized that she had more important things to take care of, especially amid the pandemic.
“Ako suggestion ko, pandemic na lang tutukan kasi yun naman yung pinaka problema natin“, said Robredo. Furthermore, she said that her last-minute candidacy was not a big issue for her.
As the candidacy for President of the Philippines closes, eyes are set on Robredo who leads the opposition against the current administration.
