Todo-tanggol kay Leni.. Noynoy, ‘wag nang umepal! — Palasyo

Sa halip na makisawsaw sa isyu na kinasasangkutan ni VP Leni Robredo, pinayuhan ng Palasyo na atupagin na lamang ni dating Pangulong Benigno ‘Noynoy’ Aquino III ang kinahaharap na kaso sa Sandiganbayan.

“Trust is earned. The missteps of the vice-president did not inspire confidence in the matter of keeping to oneself classified information,” ani Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo sa pahayag ng dating pangulo na bakit pa aniya itinalaga si Robredo bilang co-chairperson ng Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs kung ‘di rin pala ito pinagkakatiwalaan.

Giit pa ni Panelo, huwag na ring makihalo si Aquino sa problema sa droga. Bukod sa mga asuntong kinahaharap, inihirit ni Panelo na mabuting pag-ukulan na lang din ng atensiyon ni Aquino ang kanyang kalusugan. “As for former President Aquino, he is better off focusing on his case pending before the Sandiganbayan, as well as taking care of his health, than touching on a matter related to the dreaded drug menace that he never gave the attention and importance it deserves during his six-year presidency,” sabi ng kalihim.
