A manipulated video published on Facebook (FB) claims that supporters of Vice President Leni Robredo were shouting the name of rival candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. in one of her campaign sorties.
The altered video appeared on March 27 and was published by a couple of FB pages and a netizen. In the 22-second video, an audio of the crowd repeatedly chanting Marcos’ name can be heard while Robredo held a placard that read: “Shout out sa pamilya kong BBM!!! (Shout out to my family [who are supporters of] BBM!!!).”
It was a placard carried by a supporter during Robredo’s multisectoral people’s assembly in Kidapawan City, Cotabato on March 15. The original video taken during the event was published by TikTok user barrilayasan3rd on the same day.
The crowd was not shouting Marcos’ name but was screaming as Robredo held up the poster. The audio of a crowd chanting ‘BBM’ was just inserted into the video.
The altered video bore the caption: “LENI ROBREDO Grand Rally BBM sinisigaw… (Leni Robredo grand rally shouts BBM…)”
