MANILA, Philippines—Lingayen Bishop Socrates Villegas has condemned the alleged malicious videos of Aika Robredo, daughter of presidential candidate vice president Leni Robredo, saying that such deeds were created by “the disciples of the Prince of Darkness.”
“I am sorry to hear about the malicious fake videos that liars have made about you,” Villegas said of Aika in a Facebook post on Monday.

“It is incredible that they spread these lies during the Holy Week! The purveyors of these calumnies against you clearly have no sense of the Lord who called Himself the Truth.”
“The disciples of the Prince of Darkness hatched this rotten egg,” Villegas stressed.
A number of social media users sounded alarm on the what appeared to be links to an alleged sex video of Aika circulating on social media, sparking a torrent of condemnation from Robredo’s camp and other groups and organizations.
The bishop, meanwhile, also reminded Aika not to be disturbed by such “lies.”
“Let not the lies disturb you. The truth of your life of decency and humility and service and intelligence is known by all of us. Only liars will believe their own kind,” Villegas said.
He added: “As for you, stay focused on doing what is good and be unperturbed in living by the truth according to the principles your parents planted in you.”
Dear Aika,I am sorry to hear about the malicious fake videos that liars have made about you. It is incredible that…
