On Instagram, he said he didn’t get any pay to do the video, which quickly went viral on social media.
“No, we were not paid by any camp to do this.”

Janno added that he was overwhelmed with the people’s response to the video.
His sole purpose in writing and directing the video was for entertainment only and it was a big bonus that people saw meaningful value out of it.
“Woke up to this! Thank you so much for all the positive response. I’m overwhelmed Thank you pareng @leogmartinez7 for doing this w/ me No we were not paid by any camp to do this. I wrote and directed the material solely for entertainment purposes; even making fun of myself. I mean no harm”
“If some of you get something meaningful out of this, then it’s a bonus for me. Our political scene is a circus on its own. The material is out there. Just so happens it fits my Pres. Gibbs narrative.
“Thank you also to the haters. You still gave me views Again,wala po akong bayad. Meron lang akong b*yag. ,” aniya.
Meanwhile, in a subsequent post, Janno thanked netizens who appreciated his work.
He said, while he’s hesitant at first to do it, he realized that his intentions are clean and that he’s doing it just to make people happy.
“Maraming salamat po sa mga nakaapreciate🙏❤️ Nakakataba po ng puso. Sa totoo lang, nagdalawang isip ako kung gagawin ko ung materyal na sinulat ko dahil alam ko maselan.
