- Many Cabinet members remain present and fully supports Bong Go.
- In her tweet, Mocha Uson interviewed Robin Padilla on his support for Bong.
- Robin inputs his insights on the issue at hand.
Robin Padilla went out his way to support Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go in February 19, Monday. Cabinet member of President Rodrigo Duterte also went to the Senate Committee on National Defense and Security’s investigation.
The said investigation was also about the alleged controversy around the Php16 billion acquisition of two Philippine Navy frigates.
Communications Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson turned up at the Senate hearing. In a recent tweet, Mocha revealed that Robin fully supports Bong Go during the hearing. Robin gave his insights in the said issue.
“Oo, siyempre. Si Heneral Bong ang pinuno natin, kailangan natin siyang suportahan. Dahil alam naman nating politika ‘to, eh. Nakakapikon na. Hindi na tayo natapos. Dadalawang taon palang si Presidente, talagang ‘tong mga Magdalo na ‘to ayaw tumigil, eh. Kaya nandito tayo, siyempre.”
Robin referred to a Filipino saying and related it to the issue at hand.
“May kasabihan tayong mga Pilipino. ‘Yung hagupit daw sa kalabaw, sa kabayo ‘yung latay, diba? Tinitira nila si Heneral Bong pero tumatama kay Presidente ‘yun, siyempre.”
Robin turned to the camera to express continuous shameful politics.
“Ang tagal na po ng ganitong klaseng pulitika. Panahon pa ho ni Aguinaldo. 1896 pa ho, hanggang ngayon, 2018 na ganito pa rin tayo. Nakakahiya!”
Mocha later asked Robin for an input to the senators present during the hearing.
“Sir, anong masasabi niyo sa mga senador na nandyan po?”
Robin commended the senators who remain knowledgeable on the said issue.
“Nakakatuwa naman. Dahil ‘yung ibang senador, alam nilang kalokohan. Sila mismo ‘yung nagsasabing wala namang sabit si Heneral Bong. At pinakamahala ay ‘yung sinabi ng Philippine Navy, ‘yun na ‘yun. ‘Yun na ‘yung panghawakan nating lahat. Kasi ako, bilib ako sa Navy, eh. Katulad nung sinabi ni Vice Admiral, talagang mga Marines din talaga at Navy, hindi ‘yan kasama sa sinasabi nating may bahid ng kurapsyon.”
Mocha also asked Robin to name a senator who he thinks remains a pretentious senator.
“Sir, isa nalang. Sino ba dito sa tingin ninyo nagpapasikat na Senador, sir?”
Robin dropped Antonio Trillanes’ name.
“Ay, si Trillanes. Wala nang iba! Sino ba ang reincarnation ni Aguinaldo? Edi siya.”
