How Bongbong Marcos helped the constituents of Rep. Lucy Torres-Gomez
LUCY TORRES-GOMEZ – The Leyte 4th District Representative shared how former senator Bongbong Marcos helped them before.
The son of late dictator Ferdinand Marcos is rooting for the highest government position this coming election.
He will go against presidential aspirants such as Vice President Leni Robredo, Senators Manny Pacquiao and Ping Lacson as well as Manila Mayor Isko Moreno.
In an interview with SMNI News, the wife of actor-turned-politician Richard Gomez revealed how Marcos Jr. helped them during the onslaught of Super Typhoon Yolanda.
“I give you a concrete example, and I don’t know if BBM remembers this, but back when Yolanda happened, he was not part of the administration but one very first to help Ormoc City was BBM and his family,” she said.
According to her, Bongbong Marcos sent Ormoc City clean water and a gadget from some foreign company to process clean water which is very crucial at the time.
Another incident wherein Bongbong extended his hand according to Lucy was during the earthquake in Ormoc way back in 2017.
Prior to that, Marcos Jr. lost the vice-presidential race against incumbent VP Leni Robredo.
JAPTvlog shared the said footage of the interview on Facebook which now has over 5600 views.
Meanwhile, Lucy Torres-Gomez is on her last term as the 4th district representative of Leyte.
In the coming election, she will run as the mayor of Ormoc while her husband will run for Congressman. In other words, they will exchange posts.
Richard shared that a lot of political parties offered her a senate slot but she declined.
