Presidential aspirant Leni Robredo and Bishop Socrates Villegas have gone on record as saying that voters should take vote-buying bribes offered to them despite going on to vote a different candidate later on. The late Jaime Cardinal Sin had also said the same thing before. I hope that people with a true sense of decency…
Leni Robredo today issued a statement asserting that she regards herself as a “healing leader”.
