CNN PH challenges Leni Robredo, ‘Queen of Receipts,’ with its own ‘resibo’
Vice President Leni Robredo received praise from politicians, celebrities, and netizens for her performance in the CNN Philippines Presidential Debate.
Many observers on Twitter noted Robredo's preparedness and substance during the debate, with Sorsogon Governor Francis "Chiz" Escudero describing her as "humble" yet "confident."
During the debate, Robredo had to speak quickly to cite the initiatives of the Office of the Vice President within the allotted time, leading netizens to compare her to American rapper Nicki Minaj.
CNN Philippines hosts also presented a "resibo" or proof of their own, recalling Robredo's statement in a 2016 vice presidential debate that she had no plans to run for president, a statement also made by Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
