MANILA, Philippines — Presidential candidate and Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso on Wednesday continued with his attack on Vice President Leni Robredo, to now include her spokesperson Barry Gutierrez.
Moreno told Gutierrez to stop speaking for Robredo and let the Vice President speak for herself.
“Barry, tabi ka na sa gedli, pagsalitain mo ang amo mo. Pagsalitain mo yang amo mo. O baka hindi pa mabasa? Kailangan ng teleprompter?” Moreno said of Robredo in an ambush interview in Bohol.
(Barry, step aside and let your boss speak. Let her speak. Or maybe she needs a teleprompter?)
Moreno gave the statement in reaction to Gutierrez’s statement that there are no “active efforts” on the part of the Vice President’s camp to forge formal alliances.

“Barry, wag kang sinungaling, baka di mo alam ang ginagawa ng amo mo,” he said in response.
(Barry, don’t be a liar. Maybe you don’t know what your boss is doing)
“Tell me if I lie, then I’ll show you proof.”
INQUIRER.net reached Gutierrez for comment, but he has yet to respond.
