Former Presidential Communication Assistant Secretary Margaux “Mocha” Uson said on Thursday that she is ready to face Vice President Leni Robredo.
Uson’s remarks came after Robredo said that the former’s resignation from her government post will not spare her from possible liabilities over her alleged lies and scandals, reported ABS-CBN News.
Uson resigned as the Assistant Secretary for Social Media of the Presidential Communications Operations Office as a “sacrifice” so that the agency’s budget for next year will be approved.
In an interview with UNTV, Uson said that Robredo’s words do not scare her as since she has nothing to hide.
She even said that it is Robredo who is the one full of lies.
“Alam n’yo kung kasinungalingan lang, nako, sino kaya ang totoong sinungaling? Maski nga iyang posisyon n’yo bilang VP ay isang malaking kasinungalingan,” she said.
Uson challenged Robredo by saying, “Katulad nga po ng sinabi ko, patas na ang laban ngayon. Wala akong tinatago, wala akong kinakatakutan. Magharapan tayo, mata sa mata, eyeliner to eyeliner.”
The sexy dancer-turned-government official also claimed that Robredo lied when she tried to expose the alleged “palit-ulo” scheme to the Commission on Narcotic Drugs. The said scheme allegedly involved authorities taking family members of a drug addict if a person on the drug list is nowhere to be found.
“Ang fake news ay ikaw, Vice President ng Pilipinas. Gagawa ka ng video, ipadadala mo sa international community, sa United Nations international — parang about drugs. Sasabihin mo na libo-libo na ang pinapatay sa Pilipinas,” she said.
“Noong lumabas po iyung video na iyan, kumalat sa international community, iyung mga OFWs natin, na-discriminate, na-threaten ng mga ibang lahi na sinasabing ‘Even your Vice President is saying that your President is a killer,'” she added.
