TINIYAK ni Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., kahapon, ipagpapatuloy niya ang kanyang electoral protest laban kay Vice President Leni Robredo.
“Be assured that I will not stop until I show you the extent of the disenfranchisement and fraud committed in the last elections. This is for truth. This is for honest and credible elections. This is for our country’s future. This is for every Filipino,” pahayag ni Marcos.
Inihayag ito ni Marcos makaraan sabihin ng Supreme Court, bilang Presidential Electoral Tribunal, na maglalabas na ng desisyon kaugnay sa electoral protest ni Marcos.
Nauna rito, sa media briefing, sinabi ni SC Public Information Office chief at spokesman Theodore Te: “The tribunal will issue a resolution on this matter in due course.”
Gayonman, wala na siyang ibang sinabi na ano mang detalye kaugnay sa kaso.
Welcome kay Marcos ang nasabing development.
“With the Presidential Electoral Tribunal acting on my election protest, I join the Filipino people in awaiting for a speedy, fair and objective trial to ensue,” aniya.
“Every citizen of this country deserves to know the truth and together we will uncover and expose what truly happened to our votes in the May 9 elections,” dagdag niya.
Natalo si Marcos ni Robredo sa slim majority vote nang mahigit 60,000 votes sa final and official tally ng Kongreso na naupo bilang National Board of Canvassers.
