‘Di ka nakakatuwa! ‘Absent mayor’ QC Mayor Joy Belmonte trends on Twitter over arrest of hungry QC residents

Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte is on the news again, so much so she ranked number 5th trending topic on Twitter.

Netizen’s are so disappointed to the Quezon City mayor for turning a blind eye to residents’ plight after members of the Quezon City Police Department (QCPD) arrested 20 residents of Sitio San Roque who staged a protest.

Initial investigation by the QCPD showed that around 150 residents trooped to EDSA to demand food and other forms of assistance from Belmonte amid the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine.

Chaos started after members of the QCPD began dispersing the rallyists, which led to the arrest of 20 residents.

Belmonte’s silence on the incident and her inefficient response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis made ABS-CBN’s news anchor Karen Davila tweeted: “QC Mayor Joy Belmonte, your constituents need you. @officialqcmayor”

Below are some of the comments of netizens as against the perceived inefficiency of QC Mayor Joy Belmonte:

Twitter user @__jin_ri said: “QC is in distraught that they resorted to risking their lives just to ask for food. Nagugutom sila mayor Joy Belmonte, OH MY GOODNESS LOOK AT YOUR PEOPLE!!! This is definitely an LGU problem considering that the neighboring cities are somehow thriving with competent officials.”

Twitter user @pieishere said: “I fucking hate Joy Belmonte right now. We dont see this happening in Pasig or in Manila and other key cities. Quezon City is so fucked up.”

Netizen @francisyuuuh said: “the incompetence of joy belmonte reached the level where the people are starving—dying.”

Netizen @dudeistheword tweeted: “Joy Belmonte’s incompetence IS BEYOND. Shouldn’t our government be measuring the performance of how well each LGUs is dealing with the epidemic. Oof, even the national government sucks so.”
