Bongbong camp on Leni's 'liar' remark: 'We will not engage in hateful campaigning'
Presidential aspirant Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. will not resort to hateful campaigning, even after Vice President Leni Robredo called him a liar.
Marcos' spokesman, Attorney Victor Rodriguez, stated that Marcos offers a unifying leadership and will not engage in negative campaigning.
Robredo had earlier told Filipinos not to vote for Marcos, citing his alleged tendency to lie and his absence during difficult situations.
Marcos previously skipped an interview with journalist Jessica Soho, with his camp citing Soho's alleged bias against the Marcos family.
GMA Network defended Soho, highlighting her reputation as a credible journalist capable of asking pertinent questions for a presidential candidate.
