A couple of Facebook (FB) pages are spreading a statement where former vice president Leni Robredo admitted to being stupid, out of her wits, and dumb. This needs context. The two pages shared a quote card published by the Daily Tribune on Sept. 4. It read: “Bobo ako, lutang, Madumb. ‘Yun ‘yung sabi [ng trolls] […]
A YouTube video featured a vlogger who said former vice-president Leni Robredo claimed that Angat Buhay foundation would serve the public better than the government of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. This needs context. While Robredo did say that the non-government organization (NGO) aims to become the largest volunteer network in the country, she said […]
A misleading video circulating online is implying that the Commission on Audit (COA) was looking for P25 million “hidden” by former vice president Leni Robredo. Nothing was hidden from COA. The funds in question were not missing as incorrectly implied, but were flagged for being used for a different purpose. The July 22 video posted […]
A Facebook (FB) video falsely insinuated that Department of Social Welfare and Development Secretary (DSWD) Erwin Tulfo will file a case against former vice president Leni Robredo for using government food packs in her Angat Buhay Foundation’s relief operations for victims of flooding in Banaue, Ifugao. Posted by FB page Bbm-Sara News on July 11, […]
A post on Facebook (FB) carried an altered statement of former Vice President Leni Robredo and described it as her first as citizen Leni. This is misleading.

Communications Undersecretary Lorraine Badoy, concurrent spokesperson of the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC), claimed once again without basis that Vice President Leni Robredo “colluded” with the Communist Party of the Philippines – New People’s Army – National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF) and select party-list groups in the May elections.
Pinabulaanan ng abogadong si Barry Gutierrez, tagapagsalita ni Robredo, ang mga akusasyon ni Badoy, at sinabing ang mga ito ay “malinaw at ganap na kasinungalingan,” at “pinabulaanan nang paulit-ulit.”
Bilang reaksyon sa isang Facebook post ng isang piloto ng Cebu Pacific Airlines na nagsasabing humiling si Vice President Leni Robredo ng priority landing para sa eroplanong sinasakyan niya na nakapagpaantala at nagpalihis ng ibang mga flight noong nakaraang buwan, sinabi ni Senate President Vicente Sotto III na mayroong tatlong opisyal ng gobyerno na maaaring bigyan ng “priority landing at takeoff” sa bansa. Hindi totoo ang pahayag ni Sotto.
