Presidential aspirant and former senator Bongbong Marcos is confident that the petitions seeking to cancel his candidacy for president will not prosper.
“All pieces of evidence and legal arguments in our hands clearly show that the petition against my candidacy is nothing but trash,” Marcos said.
“Kaya nananawagan ako sa aking supporters at sa buong sambayanan na panatilihin natin ang pananalig na hindi magtatagumpay ang baluktot na hangarin laban sa aking pagtakbo, at patuloy nating ipaglaban ang karapatan ng mamamayan para sa malayang pagpili ng mga napupusuang nilang kandidato sa darating na halalan,” he added.
Marcos said that he will continue to fight misleading propaganda.
“Kahit alam ko na ang petisyon ng mga taong ayaw umusad ang bansa sa pag-asenso ay sadyang walang kwenta, pinaghahandaan pa rin ito ng aming mga abogado,” he said.
Marcos claimed that he saw the documents for his case and he is confident that the petitions will be dismissed.
“I’ve personally seen the documents for our defense and I’ve personally discussed them with our legal team who, along with some reputable and respectable legal experts, concluded without doubt that the petition to delist my name from the roster of applicants for the presidency is without merit and has no legal basis,” he said.
