She cited discrimination in the country for her support to the lone female candidate for the highest post in the Philippine government.
“Hanggang ngayon, lantaran pa rin ang diskriminasyon at pagmamaliit sa mga kababaihan. Kinakailangan pa nating patunayan ang mga sarili para lang kilalanin at respetuhin ng lipunan,” Abellana said.
“Tandaan, babae ka, hindi babae lang! Patuloy tayong lumaban para sa isang kulay rosas na kinabukasan!”
Abellana joined a list of celebrities including Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray and actor JC de Vera to have supported Robredo.
