Saying the electoral protest of ex-senator Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is just being used as a platform for lies," Vice President Leni Robredo n Monday called anew to end the case.
"I wish that we put an end to this protest because this is being used as an avenue to spread more lies. It is becoming a platform to propagate lies," she said.
"I know what is the truth. But he is making people believe on him. Those who believe in his lies are pitiful," she added.
On Oct. 15, the Supreme Court, sitting as the Presidential Electoral Tribunal, allowed the release of results of an initial recount without resolving the three-year-old protest of Marcos.
The results showed Robredo's lead widened by 15,000 based in the three pilot provinces chosen by Marcos.
When asked about her political plans in 2022, the Vice President said "to think of 2022 would be a big disservice to what we're doing now."
She said all of her political plans were not planned since the first time she ran for a congressional seat to vice presidency. Rio N. Araja
