MANILA, Philippines-- Comedy king Dolphy on Sunday endorsed Senator Manny Villar saying its time to put someone from Tondo in Malacañang.

Dolphy, wearing orange polo-shirt and cap and white jeans said like Villar, he was also born and raised in Tondo.

"Tiga Tondo ang tatakbo, kelangan tulungan natin [He is from Tondo, we have to help him," he said.

"Ayaw nyo ba nun? Taga-Tondo ang magiging presidente? [Don’t you want someone from Tondo to become President]," he said.

Dolphy was introduced by TV host Willie Revillame, who has been supporting Villar's presidential bid.

The crowd went wild when Revillame belted out his popular songs "Igiling giling" and "Boom tarat."

"Pagbalik ko sa wowowee, sana’y huwag ako pigilan dahil ang kulay koy' orange. Wala naman sa kulay yan e," said Revillame.
