QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – It was hard not to miss those books that were displayed on Vice President Leni Robredo’s desk as she addressed the nation via her Facebook accounts.
Books by authors like Liberal Party stalwart Jovito Salonga and Francisco Magno, not to mention a hardbound copy of the Constitution of the Philippines.
But alas, for purposes of transparency, the Office of the Vice President has admitted that the “books” were fake and were there only for “props.”
The books were actually piggy bank books!
