A Facebook post claiming that presidential candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. has asked for a recount of donations for Typhoon Odette victims sent to the Office of the Vice President (OVP) and fellow presidential contender Leni Robredo is satirical.
The Facebook post, published by Cebu Dairy News on January 2, that went viral read:
“The camp of college dropout 2022 presidential aspirant and namesake of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. submitted to the COMELEC a petition to have a full recount on the total donations for Typhoon Odette victims received by the OVP and its partner volunteer groups.
We are urging the COMELEC to heed our call and grant the recount on the total donations raised by Vice President Leni Robredo. We want full disclosure and transparency of donations,” legal counsel for Marcos said.
Since after Odette ravaged some parts of the Visayas and Mindanao, the OVP and its partner volunteer groups have been raising funds and in-kind donations to help in disaster relief and response for the victims of Typhoon Odette.”
