Senator Leila De Lima Adds Ex-Driver/Bodyguard Dayan To Her ‘List’

MANILA, Philippines(The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Senator Leila de Lima is reportedly drawing up a “more comprehensive” and “more detailed” list of Philippine officials and personalities she believes are responsible for her arrest and detention, her chief of staff and lawyer said Thursday.

The Senator is hoping her list would be the basis for the U.S. State Department in determining which Philippine officials and personalities would be banned from entering the U.S. because of their role in her incarceration.

Today, De Lima told The Adobo Chronicles (AC) she has included her former driver-bodyguard Ronnie Dayan on her list.

The Senator had previously admitted  that she had a relationship with Dayan, citing “frailties of a woman.”

De Lima told AC that Dayan’s testimony during Congressional hearings contributed to the building of the case against her.

We’re sorry for Dayan. He may never see and experience the Land of the free, and the home of the brave.

Unless, of course, he’ll manage to resolve what appears to be an “LQ” with the Senator.

 

Jollibee Discontinues 1/3 Pounder Burger, Launches 1 Pounder

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Millions of fans of Jollibee’s 1/3 pounder burger expressed deep disappointment upon hearing the news that the popular fastfood chain had discontinued this menu item popularly known as “Champ.”

American competitor McDonald’s celebrated the news with free champagne in all of its Philippine outlets.  Jollibee’s 1/3 pounder all but put McDonald’s quarter pounder to shame.  So now, the American fast food chain can lord it over when it comes to  giant burgers.

But wait. Today, Jollibee announced that it was launching a new menu item that’s bigger, heavier, tastier,  juicier and unprecedented in the burger industry — the one-pounder!

For that one-pounder experience, visit a Jollibee near you.

 

Vatican Searching For Woman Whose Hand Was Slapped By Pope Francis

THE VATICAN (The Adobo Chronicles, Rome Bureau) – Pope Francis has already publicly apologized for violating a woman at The Vatican a couple of days ago.  The incident where the Pope slapped the hand of a woman pilgrim after she grabbed his hand was caught on video and has gone super viral.

But Vatican officials are not stopping at the public apology.  They are now searching for the still unidentified woman and would like to bring her back to have a private audience with the Pope.

It wasn’t clear whether Vatican officials would like the woman to receive a personal apology from the Pope or initiate an excommunication process for her.

Regardless, news media organizations around the world are also reportedly looking for the woman and are offering One Million U.S. dollars for an exclusive interview with her.
