QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Vice President Leni Robredo has a special message to the laylayan for the New Year, and it is filled with pumped up emotion.

The Adobo Chronicles obtained a yet unpublished copy of the statement which the OVP prepared just hours after the release of the latest SWS poll rating for Robredo.  The survey shows that Robredo’s support among what was supposed to be her most loyal followers — those in the ‘fringes’ of society, or laylayan — dropped.

Here is part of Robredo’s message:

Mga  minamahal kong kababayan sa  Laylayan:

Labis akong nalulungkot sa naging resulta ng pinakahuling SWS survey.

Hindi ko akalain na kayo — sa lahat ng Pilipino — ang tatalikod sa aking mga pagnanasa at paghihirap upang mapaunlad ang inyong mga kabuhayan.  Bakit?

Hindi pa ba sapat ang aking ginawa noong mga nakaraang buwan na magbiyahe sa mga sulok ng Pilipinas at makipag-selfie sa inyo? Peke lang pala ang mga ngiti ninyo sa ating mga retrato.

Ano pa  ba ang gusto ninyong gawin ko para magtiwala kayo sa akin?

Kung ganyan lang pala ang mapapala ko sa pagiging Bise-Presidente ninyo, aba eh mas mabuti nang manalo si BongBong sa darating na re-count ng nakaraang eleksiyon.

Here’s a rough translations from Google Translate:

“Dear Laylayan countrymen and women:

I am deeply saddened to hear of the latest SWS survey.

How dare you. Of all Filipinos, I never would have thought that you’d stab me from behind, after all that I did to improve your lives. Why o why?

I’ve gone out of my to visit you all in the darkest corners of the country, alway obliging to have selfies with you. Were  those all fake smiles?

What else can I do to earn your trust and loyalty?

If this is what I get in return for being your ever-loving Vice President, we might as well let Bongbong take over and forget the recount.”
