Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte: God Chose Me To Be The Next Philippine President

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines — The Duterte family seems to be destined to lead the people. Like Moses. Digong, Sara, Paolo, Baste.

And like Moses, the Dutertes were chosen by God.

This was recently confirmed by the Davao City Mayor when she said that God has spoken to her and has chosen her to run for the Presidency in 2022 when her father ends his 6-year term.

The Adobo Chrinicles caught up with Sara on a plane from Manila to Davao and we asked her if her God was a Christian God.

Her reply: “I believe so.  His name is Pastor Apollo Quiboloy.”

Quiboloy is an  international evangelist and founder of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ church —the same Quiboloy who said God gave the Presidency to Rodrigo Duterte.

On a silver platter, or on a tablet of stone?

PNoy, Garin, Duque Agree To Be Vaccinated With Dengvaxia

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau)- Presidential Spokesperson  Salvador Panelo said that the Duterte government is open to bringing back the controversial vaccine Dengvaxia if it will help curb the increasing cases of Dengue in the country.

Panelo made the statement after Iloilo 1st District Representative and former Health Secretary Janette Garin said the recent dengue outbreak in the country could have been prevented by the discontinued Dengvaxia vaccination drive.

Garin and her former boss President Noynoy Aquino were highly criticized for the botched Dengue vaccination program which allegedly resulted in the death of over a hundred school kids.

Now, Aquino, Garin and current Health Secretary Enrique Duque have agreed to be vaccinated with Dengvaxia, along with their families, to prove that the Sanofi-manufactured vaccine is safe.

No less than Sanofi had admitted that Dengvaxia, while safe to use on those who previously had Dengue, can pose some serious consequences for those who have never had the disease.

Aquino and Garin also urged Opposition Senators Kiko Pangilinan, Risa Hontiveros and Franklin Drilon and their families to get vaccinated with Dengvaxia  as a way of “leadership by example.”

Maria Ressa Sues VP Leni Robredo For Plagiarism

Leave a comment

MANILA Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It’s a line that Rappler CEO Maria Ressa has repeated many times: “A lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth.”

Now, Ressa is suing Philippine Vice President Leno Robredo for plagiarism.

The lawsuit stems from a video interview with Robredo — conducted by Ressa herself —where the Vice President said that lies repeated many times become the truth.

That didn’t sit well with Ressa because she says Robredo stole that line from her.

Meanwhile, the estate of Nazi Propagandist Joseph Goebbels is also suing Ressa for plagiarism.  Apparently, the line about  lies being repeated becoming the truth originated from Goebbels.
