“Bagamat hindi po tayo pinalad na makapasok sa magic 12, ayon sa unofficial count ng Comelec at mga VCM’s, tatanawin ko pa rin ng malaking utang na loob sa inyo ang inyong ipinakitang suporta sa akin lalong lalo na ang masang pilipino na kahit kailan hindi po ako iniwanan,” he added.

“Sa aking BFF at kakosa na si Sen. Bong Revilla , bagamat matagal tayong nagkasama at ngayon lang tayo maghihiwalay…”
“Ipagdadasal ko ang iyong tagumpay sa Senado at ipagpatuloy mo ang laban para sa katotohanan. I love you my friend!” he added.
