Cory Aquino Sainthood: Vatican Investigating ‘Miracle’ At U.P. Chapel

IMG_5438THE VATICAN (The Adobo Chronicles, Rome Bureau) – The Roman Catholic Church usually requires two confirmed miracles before anyone is canonized as a saint. It is a requirement that has  been a stumbling block to the clamor by some to make the late President Cory Aquino the next Filipino saint.

At least one miracle is now being attributed to Aquino, and The Vatican is investigating.

On September 21  2017, politicians aligned with the Liberal Party and other opposition groups gathered at the University of the Philippines Chapel in Diliman, Quezon City — far from the maddening crowd of the Luneta Rally commemorating the 45th anniversary of tbe proclamation of Martial Law by the late Ferdinand E. Marcos.

In the middle of the church service, dozens of those present reported seeing a yellow transformation of politicians, including ex-President NoyNoy Aquino, Vice President Leni Robredo and Senators Franklin Drilon, Kiko Pangilinan and Bam Aquino.

Their white shirts suddenly turned a bright, blinding yellow just as Cory’s name was mentioned in prayer by the presiding priest.

Reached for comment by The Adobo Chronicles, the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) said, “We don’t comment on ongoing investigations.”

Actor Gabby Concepcion Thankful He Was Cussed By President Duterte

IMG_5416MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Instead of being enraged, Gabby Concepcion expressed deep gratitude to President Rodrigo Duterte who cussed the actor in a recent televised speech.

Gabby Concepcion, mukha kang pera, p*tng *na ka,” Duterte said repeatedly. (Translation: “money-faced son-of-a-b*tch)

The President was, of course referring to ABS-CBN’s Gabby Lopez whom he described as one of the country’s oligarchs.

Concepcion told The Adobo Chronicles that he was very honored to have been mentioned by the President.

“It means he is an avid fan,” Concepcion, a hearthrob of the 80’s, said of Duterte.

The actor is also very thankful because now, his name will go viral and this could only again jumpstart his acting career.

All’s well that ends well.
