She said that all Filipinos have the right to call out the lapses of the administration and can make a suggestions to address them.
“Palagay ko, kahit hindi ako VP may karapatan ako. Kahit hindi ako VP, kahit ordinaryong mamamayan lang ako, may karapatan akong ipahayag yung aking mungkahi.” VP Leni Robredo said.
She added, “May karapatan akong mag-criticize if I need to criticize kasi yun yung demands ng pagiging Pilipino ko. Ang demand sakin as a Filipino ay maging bahagi ako sa nation building.”
Vice President Leni Robredo, sent some proposals to the Palace to help the government’s action or response to the pandemic issue. While the President acussed her on fueling the fire or anger of the people.
Some netizens also said that Robredo had no right to speak because she is not the President, which Leni disagreed. She said, “Sa akin obligasyon yun and hindi pwedeng sabihin na dahil hindi ako Presidente, hindi ako pwedeng mag-salita. As I have said kahit walang katungkulan pwedeng magsalita.”
VP Leni said that she will use that platform to speak up and be the voice.
