MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) Enough of all these bandwagon presidential candidate interviews and forum. The Filipinos are sick and tired, sick and tired.

The Adobo Chronicles heard you, the voters.

On February 14, Valentine’s Day, The Adobo Chronicles is sponsoring a Facebook Live debate between the top two presidential candidates, former Senator Bongbong Marcos and Manila Mayor Isko Moreno. Both have confirmed attendance.

But the camp of Leni Robredo has filed a petition to stop the AC debate before the understaffed Commission on Elections (with the retirement of three of its Commissioners) on the grounds that the Vice President is the distant second place in most surveys.

After learning of the petition, The Adobo Chronicles offered a separate debate between Robredo and Senator Manny Pacquiao, but neither has responded to our invitation

This is a developing story.
