Earlier, he staunch critic of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte made
statement that the government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic will be more
effective with the Vice President leading the IATF.
“Why does it have to be ‘lead’, why not a supporting role
under General Galvez who waded in and instantly whipped the disorganized effort
into working shape. I mean, if you’re sincere. What if she’s assisted by the
same people who have made a mess of a fine person’s campaign?” Locsin said in response
to an article on Trillanes’ remark.
Vice President Robredo has been helping out in the pandemic
