Good afternoon!

Given that President Rodrigo Duterte decided to withdraw his acceptance of nomination, I am here to take on the challenge as PDP-Laban’s Vice Presidential candidate.

Napag-desisyunan kong tumakbo bilang Bise Presidente sa darating na halalan upang maipagpatuloy ang mga magagandang programa at tunay na pagbabagong naumpisahan ni Pangulong Duterte — at sisikapin nating dagdagan pa ang mga ito.

Sayang oras kung patulan pa lahat ng fake news.

Sagot ito ni Sen. Christopher Bong Go sa kumakalat na balitang si Manila Mayor Isko Moreno ay kanyang secret candidate.

Hindi na bago na madami na namang kumakalat na fake news lalo na’t papalapit na ang eleksyon.

Asahan natin na dadami pa yan sa susunod na mga araw kung kaya’t dapat maging mapanuri tayo sa mga impormasyon na nakukuha natin.

Lahat na nga ng oras namin nakatuon sa pagtulong sa gobyerno na maiahon ang ating mga kababayan na malampasan ang pandemyang ito.

As the election season nears, Senator Christopher “Bong” Go said that he will consider and prioritize the continuity of President Rodrigo Duterte’s legacy in supporting and selecting the country’s next leaders and has urged Filipinos to do the same.

“It has never been more crucial for every Filipino to participate in our democratic process as we prepare for our next elections. The good news is that we have time to evaluate and consider who will lead our country for the next six years,” said Go.

In a privilege speech, Go cited President Duterte who, during his Talk to the People address on Tuesday morning, said that he has the authority to appoint individuals he put trust into government positions.

This is according to Albay A 2nd District Representative Joey Salceda.

This time, Senator Poe said DOH underspent 31 percent of pandemic funds.

Sam Esmael, a resident of Datu Salibo, Maguindanao, said today that the poll body should invalidate the proclamation of winners in Datu Salibo election until after the investigation.
