On the Saturday edition of It’s Showtime, Vice Ganda celebrated his 43rd birthday with his co-hosts on the show together with the Madlang Pipol. On a VTR played after the Unkabogable Star’s birthday performance, he was obviously surprised when he got birthday greetings from two of the country’s highest officials President Rodrigo Duterte and Vice President Leni Robredo.
Vice President Leni Robredo was the first to be shown and said, “From one Vice to another, happy birthday, Vice! Sana bigyan ka pa ng lakas. Dasal ko na mas maging maayos ang iyong kalusugan para mas mapasaya mo pa ang mas marami nating kababayan sa mas mahabang panahon. Happy birthday!”
His Excellency, the President Rodrigo Duterte’s greeting immediately followed, “Vice Ganda, you are celebrating your birthday today. Ang Vice na walang kasing ganda, who has made so many millions of our Filipino brothers and sisters happy on a regular basis by just watching your program. You made the face of the Filipino very happy. I wish you will succeed for more so many years, and that I pray to God that you live for a thousand years. Vice, maraming salamat sa tulong mo sa tao, pati sa akin, and ang sinasabi ko, sana tatagal ka. Mabuhay, Vice Ganda, walang kasing ganda sa bayan natin.”
The birthday celebrator thanked the President and the Vice President alike for the greetings.
He said, “Maraming-maraming salamat po, Vice President Robredo, pinag-aksayahan niyo po ako ng oras. Mabuhay po kayo. God bless you, at nawa’y mas maging malakas pa kayo nang matagal.
“Si President Digong, maraming-maraming salamat po. Sa dami ng pinagkakaabalahan niyo, naisingit niyo pa ang makagawa ng video greeting para sa akin. Maraming maraming salamat po, Mr. President. Ang ganda ng sinabi niya, ‘Sana magtagal ka pa.’ Hindi ko alam kung nagwi-wish sya o pinagbabantaan niya ako. Pero I love you, Mr. President.
“I love you, Vice President. Maraming-maraming salamat. Mabuhay po kayo.”
