DQ For Rowena Guanzon As Partylist Representative!

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Sometimes, a sinister plot can have positive results.

Today, it was announced that all five nominees of the P3PWD Partylist resigned, paving the way for ex-Comelec Commissioner Rowena Guanzon to become the first nominee. If confirmed, Guanzon will take on the title of Congresswoman!

It will be recalled that as Comelec Commissioner, she voted to DQ (disqualify) then presidential candidate Bongbong Marcos from running in the 2022 elections. She was eventually overruled by the Comelec Division handling Marcos’ DQ case.

Now, it’s Guanzon’s turn to be DQ’d.

Eyewitnesses told The Adobo Chronicles that they saw her meeting with the 5 partylist nominees, presumably to pressure them to resign so that she can become the first nominee, and subsequently the Congress representative.

Yes, she was spotted at DQ, the ice cream shop Dairy Queen at Robinson’s Mall in Mandaluyong, Metro Manila!

QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – When radio host Ely Saludar asked Leni Robredo what the acronym NGO stands for, the Vice President quickly answered, ”Non-government Association.” The video clip from that exchange immediately went viral.

The two were discussing Robredo’s planned NGO that will be a take off from her project ”Angat Buhay.” She promised it will be the largest volunteer network in the country.

But positive things can result from negative things.

Today, a special Internet domain name was created exclusively for Robredo’s NGO, along with her Angat Buhay URL.

Henceforth, the NGO can be accessed on the web through:

www.AngatBuhay.ass

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – The annual Met Gala, held at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, is known as “fashion’s biggest night out” with celebrities in attendance wearing their most elegant or outrageous gowns and attires.

But the Met Gala as we know it is coming to an end.

From New York to the Philippines!

Incoming First Lady Emeritus Imelda Romualdez Marcos (mother of Philippine President-elect Bongbong Marcos) has announced plans to to buy the rights to the Met Gala.

Under the plan, the world-famous gala will be moved from the city that never sleeps to the city with flying jeepneys.

Leave it to Filipino ingenuity to create Guinness-worthy world records, not to mention the high fashion sense of Filipino designers, to transform the Met Gala into a universal spectacle never before seen.

The venue of the proposed Philippine Gala will be at the revived/renovated Manila Metropolitan Theater, more popularly known as The Met.
