'I apologize, Ma'am': Alvarez apologizes to Robredo over past criticisms
Davao del Norte Representative Pantaleon Alvarez has apologized to Vice President Leni Robredo for his past criticisms and announced his support for her, stating it is part of his ongoing fight against dictatorship.
Alvarez admitted to having said negative things about Robredo during his term as Speaker of the House.
He acknowledged a past instance where he accused Robredo of wanting to be president and potentially being part of a destabilization plot against President Duterte.
At that time, Alvarez was also considering filing an impeachment complaint against the Vice President.
Alvarez explained his decision to support Robredo stems from his early involvement in the fight against the Marcos dictatorship during his law school days in Ateneo.
He drew a parallel between the historical fight of Marcos versus Cory and the current political landscape.
