MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – There is no denying that Leni Robredo is a breath away from becoming President.  She herself said in the past that the only role a Vice President has is to “wait for something to happen to the President.”

The Adobo Chronicles sat down with Robredo and asked her what she would do as President if faced with the very issues that Duterte is now facing.

Here’s the full transcript of our interview:

AC: What would be your first official act as President?

Robredo: I will immediately transfer the seat of government from Manila to Camarines Sur. Duterte has Davao as the Malacañang of the South.  There is no reason I can’t make Naga City the Malacañang of the Central Philippines.

AC: President Duterte often uses commercial flights between Manila and Davao.  Are you going to do the same?

Robredo: No, of course not.  I will take the bus.

AC: You have been the ‘victim’ of fake news.  As President, what will do you to curb the spread of fake news?

Robredo:  I will give purveyors of fake news a dose of their own medicine.  I will be the No. 1 source of fake news and will let Rappler, Inquirer and ABS-CBN run the PCOO as well as the Office of the Presidential Spokesperson.

AC: What will be the fate of Leila De Lima, Andy Bautista, NoyNoy Aquino, the Prieto Family and Lourdes Sereno under a Robredo Administration?

Robredo: They will all receive Presidential Pardon.

AC: The NoyNoy Administration’s mantra was “Tuwid na Daan.” What would be yours?

Robredo: Walang nang daan daan.

AC:  Kuwait has expelled the Philippines’ Ambassador amid the growing controversy on the treatment of Filipino maids in this Middle East country.  If you were President now, what would you do?

Robredo: Georgeeeeeeena!

Jover Laurio’s Disbarment Case Against Atty. Larry Gadon Thrown Out!

6DE5F65E-23F9-4B3C-BA62-0D26DD067CAC.jpegMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Pinoy Ako Blog’s Jover Laurio has joined the bandwagon and filed her own disbarment complaint against Atty. Larry Gadon.

She and others accused Gadon of grossly immoral conduct for how he acted towards the protesters (among them, Laurio) in Baguio City.

Laurio wrote in her complaint: “Complainants wish to point out that Gadon raised a dirty finger against peaceful protesters supporting Chief Justice Sereno without provocation.”

Laurio proudly posted copies of her complaint on her blog on Monday, neatly arranged like a deck of cards.44464179-646A-4CEE-958C-2EBF427A3C28

However, just minutes after she filed the complaint on Tuesday, it was thrown out by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines.

The Reason?  She submitted just three copies, instead of the required ten.

She was so in a hurry to take a photo of her complaint to post on her blog that she forgot 7 out of the ten Manila folders were empty.

Either that or she may be mathematically-challenged.
