In a recent controversy, Vice President Sara Duterte claimed that her visit to former VP Leni Robredo in Naga City was planned in advance, with prior notice given to Robredo. However, Robredo herself disputed this, stating that Duterte’s visit was impromptu.
The discrepancy in their accounts has raised questions about who is telling the truth. Robredo, known for her transparency during her tenure, emphasized that no prior arrangement was made, directly contradicting Duterte’s version of events. Given Robredo’s consistent public record, it appears that her account holds more credibility in this situation. This suggests that VP Duterte’s claim may not have been accurate, raising concerns about her honesty in public statements.
The quick fact-check by Robredo adds to the tension, further fueling debates around the leadership styles and communication strategies of the current and former vice presidents.
