Despite still being chairperson of the once-ruling Liberal Party, Robredo decided to run as an independent to show her willingness to work with others.

It’s not every day you see different political colors join the stage for a presidential campaign but Vice President Leni Robredo running as an independent candidate opened the doors for lawyers Chel Diokno, and Alex Lacson, reelectionist Senator Richard Gordon, and former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV.

He spoke of his background as a lawyer for the “dehado ” and said that despite winning many of his cases, many are still falling into the cracks in the justice system. In jest and this is what his supporters, who call themselves “Chel-dren” loved about him, he wondered if he got his “good looks” from his ancestors, too.He said he wants to see if he can still speak in straight Bicolano since he can trace his roots to Ligao, Albay where his father is from.

The son of a public school teacher and a mere high school graduate, that didn’t stop him from finishing law and taking up a special course at the prestigious Harvard University. The senator said he was “astounded” by the crowd, saying: “We are in the pink of health in this province.”

Just to fool people n iba sya sa dati but kung tingnan mo sila sila din lang magkksama... Kagagawan din nila yan n walang effect yung partido nila dhil sa mga terms nila nagppkasasa sila di nila expect na gising n mga tao😂

Nambobola ang mapait na lenlen. Ang sabihin nya ayaw lang nya maidentify syang yellowtard. Yan ang typical na basura.

What the F***! Her presidential slate waving pink as official color does not mean she’s free and independent from that leftist party. We all know that if she wins, LP will emerge again. 🤨

I don't think she will be the one in a million years.. She's Only dreaming about it. Anyway just keep it like that Leni stay asleep and keep dreaming 😴

Nope

Willingness to work with others🤷‍♀️? Let's see what iampinglacson has to say with that thought🤦🏾‍♀️. AngatBuhayLahat LutangLenlen AmoyTaeAngRosasNila

🤣🤣🤣

I don't think so. You don't want to incorporate the yellow brand anymore. Kasi sira na sa paningin ng mga tao.

ito pa..

How can you be independent and chairperson of a political party at the same time? paulsalarm

In your wildest dream. Hahaha

All she proved is her willingness to abandon ship just to save her own neck...

Ahaha alam ba nya ibig sabihin ng independent?ahaha.,.i mean ok ok never mind

Oh comeon! Independent? She has the same yellows in her slate and backing her. From 'independent', ok for taking money but vote wisely, give incentives to non vaxxers but nothing to the ones following the rules, etc. This is the kind of leadership of following western masters.

Real reason, because of the many sins committed by notorious members of the party, especially its leaders....u

Luh willingness? Practice what you preach di yan pinakita mo nung vp ka namin for 6 yrs

Kya dapat handa Tayo lagi DHL sa Ng tagumpay ka madam Leni ingat Po kau DHL c matandang Duterte hnd Yan titigil na sisiraan Po kayo Kya lagi Ganda Tayo ,sa kilos Ng mga Duterte at Marcos

it's about time bicolanos send a malacanang occupant. ilocanos tagalogs kapampangans boholanos and Davao had their share. your turn has come

LeniTangaSaLahat 1+ lang ang satisfied sa kanya.

How can that be? The chair of a once powerful Party who still holds and command authority to its members and party resources tried to distance herself from them. I think there is something wrong with that. Dapat tindigan ni Leni kung nasaan sya at hindi nya ikinakatwa.

I find the reason given not believable.

'Willingness to work with others'? You mean, The ONLY option she has since no one from the LP wanted to support her. The powerful factions chose Lacson and Moreno not her. If she really wants unity she would have chosen between the two but she's too ambitious to give way🙄🤪🤮

Hahaha. Independent kasi sinusuka na ng mga tao ang LP. Magpalit man ng pink, naninilaw pa din ang loob. Tssseeeehhhh!!!!

Goodluck

Ang hindi bumintang paandar 🤭🤭🤭🤭
